Gina went to a restaurant for lunch. On her bill the sales tax equals $2.34. If the tax is 8.5%, what was the subtotal (without tax) of her meal?

$2.5389

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Cost of lunch = $2.34

Tax= 8.5%

Let us compute the cost of the tax

=8.5/100*2.34

=0.085*2.34

= $0.1989

Hence the total is = 0.1989+2.34

=$2.5389

you divide the denominator by the numerator on both sides and if the quotients are equal then the fractions are equivalent

the discriminant is 64 + 4*1*12 = 112

this is prime.
