Ami and her friends went for a dance lesson.It cost $242 before taxes.Tax and gratuity add 23% in additional charges.Ami calculates this as $55.66 in additional charges.Is the reasonable?Explain
we need to calculate 23% of 242. If 242=100% and X=23%, then 23•242=100•X 5566=100X X=55.66 Since our answer matches Ami’s, then her calculations must be reasonable.
