Hi mom,
"if minimum wage is $7.35 and tipped workers must be paid $2.13, how do I determine what percentage of the minimum wage tipped workers receive?"

I assume this is in the USA. Tipping is not a big thing in Australia so I need to understand what you really mean.

if minimum wage is $7.35 per hour? and tipped workers must be paid $2.13 per hour?, how do I determine what percentage of the minimum wage tipped workers receive?

Are they paid so little because they make up the rest in tips? That is what I will assume.

It is just
2.13 / 7.35 *100%

Yes. Your understanding is correct and your math "tip" was just what I needed. Thanks.
