Question

Brady and 3 friends went to lunch at Mazzio’s Pizza. Their meal cost $32, and they left a 15% tip. How much was the total bill, including tip? Can someone please explain it to me how to do it?

Answer 1

Answer: $36.8

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that Brady and 3 friends went to lunch at Mazzio’s Pizza and that their meal cost $32, and they left a 15% tip. Their total bill will be $32 plus 15% of $32. This can be written mathematically as:

= $32 + (15% of $32)

= $32 + (15/100 × $32)

= $32 + (0.15 × $32)

= $32 + $4.8

= $36.8

Their total bill is $36.8
