Question

The Mason family's bill for dinner is $53.47. How much should they tip their server? (Assuming the standard 15% tip) $0.28

Answer 1

The question is essentially asking you to find 15% of 53.47
53.47/100 = 0.5347
0.5347 x 15 = 8.02
So the Mason family would tip $8.02

Answer 2

$53.47 x 0.15 = $8.02

They should tip their server $8.02 based on 15% standard
