Allam just finished a great meal at a restaurant in Wisconsin. The sales tax in Wisconsin is 5\%5%5, percent, and it is customary to leave a tip of 15\%15%15, percent for the server. The tip amount is calculated on the price of the meal before the tax is applied. (Sales tax is not calculated on tips.)
If Allam ordered a \$15$15dollar sign, 15 meal, how much money will he have to pay with tax and tip?

Respuesta :

15% of 15 is 2.25, meaning the tip will be $2.25

So now for sales tax. 5% of 15 is .75, meaning sales tax will be $0.75

So now, for the total cost, 15+2.25+0.75= 18

So with tax and tip, the total wil be $18.00

Answer:

$18.00
