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 :) !!!
