Answer:
Ashley will have a total bill of $54.99
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Convert percentages into fractions or decimals
For fraction: divide 17 by 100 and remove the % sign.
[tex][17][/tex]%[tex]=\frac{17}{100}[/tex]
For decimal: move the decimal point 2 places to the left and remove the % sign.
[tex][17][/tex]%[tex]=0.17[/tex]
2. Multiply the decimal or fraction by the quantity that equals 100%
100%=47
[tex]17/100*47=0.17*47=7.99[/tex]
So hence, 17% is $7.99 of $47
3. Add the Tip with the Cost of the Meal (will give final answer)
to make things easier -
47+7=54
54+0.99=54.99
