Our bill at the Macaroni Grill was $138. This included a 15% tip. How much was the check?

Please show how to do with proportions and a percent equation.

 

The answer is $117.30, just want to know what particular proportions and equation you may have used.

 

Thanks,

It would appear that their is an error in the problem, unless it is missing tax or whatnot.

138 / 1.15  = $120

 

Proof

 

120 + .15* 120  = $138
