Mrs. duncans bill at a restaurant was $24.00 before tax. the sales tax rate was 8.25% and mrs. duncan also included a $5 tip. what was the total amount she spent at the restaurant.

30.98$
Hope this helps

STEP 1:
Find the amount of tax charged
= $24 * 8.25%
move the percent decimal two places to the left for decimal form
= 24 * 0.0825
= $1.9776 tax

STEP 2:
Add bill, tax and tip for total paid
Total= $24 + $1.9776 + $5
Total= $30.9776
round to second decimal place
Total= $30.98

ANSWER: Total paid was $30.98

Hope this helps! :)
