Answer:

c. The tip is $10.00

The total bill in the restaurant is = $ 68.42

They wanted to pay a gratuity of 15%

Therefore the correct tip can be calculated as :

= 68.42 of 15%

= [tex]$68.42 \times \frac{15}{100}$[/tex]

= 68.42 x 0.15

= 10.263

≈ 10 (approx.)

Thus the individual along with the other two wishes to pay a tip $10.00 for the total value.
