The Oates family went out to dinner. The price of the meal was
$33.95. They left a 15% tip.
What was the total cost?

$39.04

Step-by-step explanation:

1.Approach

To solve this problem, one must first find the amount of tip that was left, then add the value to the cost of the meal. The amount of tip given can be found by dividing the percent value of the tip by (100) and then multiplying the result by the price of the meal.

2.Find the amount of tip

To find the amount of tip that was left, divide the percent value of the tip by (100). This technique converts the percent into a decimal. After doing so,  multiply the result by the cost of the meal.

Tip as a percent: 15%

Tip as a decimal: 0.15

Amount of tip left:

33.95 * 0.15 = 5.0925

Round the result

~5.09

3.Find the total bill

Disincluding the tax, one now has to add the tip to the cost of the meal to find the total amount paid.

(tip) + (price)

= (5.09) + (33.95)

= (39.04)
