He left an 18% too and the total was 34.22

Travis Wu · Answer 2

I'm assuming that each price copied twice, since 5.225.22 isn't a number.

To find the percent, divide the tip by the meal cost:

5.22 : 29 = 0.18 = 18%

Jerry left an 18% tip.

To find the total cost of the meal, add the tip and the meal cost:

5.22 + 29.00 = 34.22

The total cost if the meal, including tip, was $34.22.
