PLS SHOW WORK

Answer 1

16

Explanation:

Basically,

1st step: Look at the key words 5%, 60%, total cost, 15%.

Next, divide 60/15 (=4)

Then, divide 60/5 (=12)

Now, you add up 4 + 12 (=16)

Then, you lastly subtract 60 - 16 (=44)

And, they were asking for the total cost of the tax and tip (16)

So, your answer is 16!
