Don and Marie like to go to a good restaurant. Dinners are $16 to $19 dollars with soup or salad. A beverage is $1.50. Dessert is $3.75. If one dinner is $16, the other is $19 and each diner has a beverage and dessert, what will the cost be if a 6% tax is charged and a 15% tip on the pre-tax amount is left? $

40.25 you add everything together then multiply by. 6

Grayson Mcgee · Answer 2

16 + 19 + 2 (1.50) + 2 (3.75) = 45.50 ... now this is before tax

there is a tip of 15% ... 0.15 (45.50) = 6.825 rounds to 6.83 ... tip

there is a 6% sales tax ... 45.50 * 1.06 = 48.23

so in total, meal + tax + tip = 48.23 + 6.83 = 55.06 <===
