Question

Frank and Linda just Finnished a meal and received their bill 47.60 they would like to leave their server with a 20 percent tip which expression could be used to find the total bill including graduity ?

Answer 1

1.20($47.60)

Explanation:

The quickest way to address this problem is to combine 1($47.60) + 0.20($47.60) into the simpler expression (1+0.20)($47.60), or

1.20($47.60).

We are not asked to find the final amount due, but it is $57.12.

Answer 2

`47.60(1.20)`

Explanation:

Given,

The amount of bill = 47.60,

Tip percentage = 20%,

So, the amount of tip = 20% of the bill

`=(20* 47.60)/(100)`

Thus, the amount of total bill including gratuity = Amount of bill + amount of tip

`=47.60+(20* 47.60)/(100)`

`=47.60+0.20* 47.60`

`=47.60(1.20)`

Which is the required expression.
