15.25 divided by 100= 0.1525 times 15 = 2.2875 then round to $2.29 (2.29 is the tip) 2.29 + 15.25 = $17.54 would be the total cost!

Answer:

$17.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost:

Cut = $15.25 + 15% of $15.25.

1. Determine the 15% of 15.25

10% = $1.525 (you move the decimal over to the left once)

5% = 1.525/2 = $.7625

Add the 2 values together

$1.525 + $.7625 = $2.2875 - 15%

2. Add the Total Cost of the Cut and the tip together

$15.25 + $2.2875 = $17.5375

3. Round the answer to the nearest hundredth

$17.5375 turns into $17.54
