Question

the bill at the restaurant came to $93.50 if I add in a 20% tip to the bill and there is 6% sales tax l, how much is my final bill

Answer 1

Data:

Bill: $93.50

tip: 20%

sales tax= 6%

To find the total you need to find the amount that add to the bill the tip percentage and the sales tax.

To find a x% of an amount you multiply the amount by x/100

20%:

$93.50\cdot\frac{20}{100}=18.7$

6%:

$93.50\cdot\frac{6}{100}=5.61$Then, the final bill is: $117.81$93.50+18.7+5.61=117.81$
