Paco went out for breakfast. The bill came to $8.21. He wants to leave a tip that is 20% of the bill. About how much should he leave for tip ? A: $0.80 B. $1.60 I'm not in college this is 5th grade math I put 50 points because I'm a savage like that XD please answer

Answer 1

Multiply the amount of the bill ($8.21) by 0.20:

0.20($8.21) = $1.64

so the appropriate tip amount would be about $1.60 (Answer B)

Answer 2

Hello there!

I am little bit worried since you didn't give all the options.

Anyway...The answer is 1.64

He should leave $1.64

The formula is Tip = cost * the percent of the tip
Tip = 8.21 * 0.20%
Tip = 1.64

I hope this helps!
