Diners frequently add a 15% tip when sharing a meal to a credit card. what is the total amount charged if the cost of the meal, without tip, is 45

Respuesta :

this comes to 1.15 * 45

  = 51.75

Answer:

51.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The cost of the meal without tip = 45,

Since, the percentage of tip = 15%,

So, the amount of tip = 15% of the cost of meal without tip

= 15% of 45

[tex]=\frac{15\times 45}{100}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{675}{100}[/tex]

= 6.75

Hence, the total cost of the meal = cost without tip + amount of the tip

= 45 + 6.75

= 51.75
