Estimate the amount of the tip by rounding the bill to the nearest dollar before calculating.

15% tip on a bill of $46.62

The amount of the tip is approximately...?

Respuesta :

Hello there! 46.62 rounded to the nearest dollar is 47. That's because the tenths digit is greater than 5, so we round up from 6 to 7. The new number is 47. Now, we can multiply by 15% to find the approximate amount of the tip, because that will get us to 15% of the amount. 47 * 15% (0.15) is 7.05. The amount of the tip is approximately $7.05.
