The Rodriguez family went to dinner at Pasta Palace. The family ordered food that totaled $\$42.50$. The sales tax rate was 7.25% and they left a 15% tip. How much was the total bill?
Food cost ----> $42.50
Tax Rate was 7.25%
And the tip was 15% of the food.
(7.25% x 42.50) + 42.50. This Equation will tell us how much they pay with tax (excluding the tip)
That answer is rounded off to $48.58
Now for the 15% tip.
(15% x 45.58) + 45.58 ≈ 52.42
Therefore, the Rodriguez family paid around $52.42.
Hope that helps :) !!!
