Michael just finished a great meal in a restaurant in Wisconsin. The sales tax in Wisconsin is 5%, percent, and it is customary to leave a tip of 15%, percent for the waiter. The tip amount is calculated on the price of the meal before the tax is applied. Sales tax is not calculated on tips. If Michael left $18 on the table to cover his meal, tax, and tip, what was the price of his meal before tax and tip?
