Question

Alan was paying a dinner check, but he was not sure how much he should tip for his bill of $27.38. If a 15% tip is standard, about how much should Alan leave for the server?

Answer 1

27.38 * .15

answer = $4.11

Answer 2

$4.11
bc 15% of 27.38 is 4.11. u can use the fractions x/27.28 = 15/100 and cross multiply and then divide by x
