Question

A restaurant bill before tax was $15.50 If the sales tax is 8% and a 15 % tip is added what is the total cost.

Answer 1

total cost would be about $19.07

Explanation:

First you find out what 8 percent is from 15.50 which would be 1.24

Then you find out what 15 percent is from 15.50 which is 2.325 but you round it so it would be 2.33

Finally you add al three together, 15.50+ 1.24+2.33 which then sums up to the final cost
