Question

The Smith family went to eat at Buffalo Wild Wings. The bill was $43.86. They gave the server a 20% tip. How much did they pay altogether?

Answers

  1. Answer:

    $52.63

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To find 20% of $43.86 we multiply $43.86 by 0.2
    $43.86 • 0.2 = $8.772
    Now add $43.86 and $8.772 to find out how much the family paid altogether.
    $43.86 + $8.772 = $52.632
    In money the smallest place value is cents so we have to round to the hundredths place.
    Doing this we get the grand answer of:
    $52.63

  2. 52.63

    To find the altogether cost of the meal including tip you need to multiply the bill ($43.86) by 1.20

    43.86(1.2) = 52.632

    Same would go for if you were leaving a 10% tip but you would multiply by 1.10
