Question

Jerome works as a waiter. He earns $80 each weekend plus 15% in tips based on the cost of the meals served.

Part A. Jerome served $725 worth of meals last weekend. How much did Jerome earn last weekend?

Answer 1

Answer:

He gets paid $80 each weekend, and a 15% with tips.

you would need to figure out the tips, by taking the $725 and timesing it by .15 for the percent.

you would now take 108.75 and add 80 to get what he made that weekend.

108.75+80 = 188.75 dollars
