Question

Find the total cost. $20 meal; 9% sales tax; 20% gratuity after the sales tax has been added Group of answer choices

Answer 1

Answer: $‭26.16‬

Explanation:

Total cost = Meal cost + Sales tax + Gratuity after sales tax

Sales tax = 9% * 20

= $1.80

Gratuity after sales tax is added = 20% * (20 + 1.80)

= $4.36

Total cost = 20 + 1.80 + 4.36

= $‭26.16‬
