Question

The Rodriguez family went out to dinner and the bill came to $35.85. They wanted to leave a 20% tip. What is the tip? What is the total amount the Rodriguez family spent at the restaurant?

Answer 1

Answer:

The tip is $7.17

Total amount spent is $43.02

Step-by-step explanation:

The bill is $35.85

The tip is 20%

You want to find 20% of $35.85 so multiply 35.85 by .2 (20% to decimal is .2)

35.85 multiplied by .2 gives you $7.17

So the tip is going to be $7.17

The total amount the family pays is the sum of the tip and the bill so

tip + bill = $7.17+$35.85 = $43.02

hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer:

total = $43.02

Step-by-step explanation:

for tip,

X = 20% of bill

X = 20/ 100  X $35.85

X = $ 7.17

For total amount,

total = bill + tip

        = $35.85 + $7.17

        = $43.02
