Question
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Tax
Meal plus tax = 25.3 + 8/100 * 25.3
Meal plus tax = 25.3 + 2.024 Round later. Find the total.
Meal plus tax = 27.324
Meal plus tax = 27.32 rounded to the nearest cent.
Tip
Total cost = 27.324 + 27.324 * 18 /100
Total cost = 4.91832 + 27.324
Total cost = 32.242
Rounded to nearest cent = 32.24 You should always round at the last step.
