Ken, mike, and Ariel are eating out at their favorite restaurant. They each order a sandwich combo and plan to split the bill evenly. The service they receive at the restaurant is amazing, so they decide to leave a 30% tip. Their bill total is $50.88 before tax. If floridas sales tax is 6%, how much will each person pay? Both tip and tax are calculated based on the original total of the bill. Round the tip and tax to the nearest hundredth immediately after calculating. Round ur final answer to the nearest hundredth
To calculate how much each person will pay, we need to add the sales tax and the tip to the original bill total. Let's break down the calculation step-by-step:
1. Calculate the sales tax:
The sales tax in Florida is 6%. Since the bill total before tax is given as $50.88, we can calculate the tax amount by multiplying the bill total by the sales tax rate:
Tax = $50.88 * 0.06
= $3.05 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Therefore, the tax amount is $3.05.
2. Calculate the tip:
The tip rate is given as 30%. We need to calculate the tip amount based on the original bill total, which is $50.88:
Tip = $50.88 * 0.30
= $15.26 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
So, the tip amount is $15.26.
3. Add the tax and the tip to the bill total:
Bill total + Tax + Tip
$50.88 + $3.05 + $15.26 = $69.19 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Therefore, the final total including tax and tip is $69.19.
4. Divide the final total evenly among the three people:
Each person pays 1/3 of the total bill:
$69.19 / 3 = $23.06 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Each person will pay approximately $23.06.
Therefore, each person will pay approximately $23.06.
To calculate each person's share of the bill, we need to consider the bill total, the tip, and the sales tax.
1. Calculate the sales tax amount:
Sales tax = Bill total * (Tax rate/100)
Sales tax = $50.88 * (6/100)
Sales tax = $3.05 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
2. Add the sales tax to the bill total to find the subtotal:
Subtotal = Bill total + Sales tax
Subtotal = $50.88 + $3.05
Subtotal = $53.93
3. Calculate the tip amount:
Tip = Subtotal * (Tip rate/100)
Tip = $53.93 * (30/100)
Tip = $16.18 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
4. Add the tip to the subtotal to find the total amount:
Total amount = Subtotal + Tip
Total amount = $53.93 + $16.18
Total amount = $70.11 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
5. Divide the total amount by the number of people:
Each person's share = Total amount / Number of people
Each person's share = $70.11 / 3
Each person's share = $23.37 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Therefore, each person should pay approximately $23.37.
Still wrong
Apologies for the confusion. Let's recalculate correctly:
1. Calculate the sales tax:
The sales tax in Florida is 6%. We can calculate the tax amount by multiplying the bill total by the sales tax rate:
Tax = $50.88 * 0.06
= $3.05 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Therefore, the tax amount is $3.05.
2. Add the tax to the bill total to find the subtotal:
Subtotal = Bill total + Tax
= $50.88 + $3.05
= $53.93 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
3. Calculate the tip:
The tip rate is 30%. We need to calculate the tip amount based on the subtotal:
Tip = Subtotal * 0.30
= $53.93 * 0.30
= $16.18 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
So, the tip amount is $16.18.
4. Add the tip to the subtotal to find the total amount:
Total amount = Subtotal + Tip
= $53.93 + $16.18
= $70.11 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
5. Divide the total amount by the number of people:
Each person's share = Total amount / Number of people
= $70.11 / 3
= $23.37 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Therefore, each person will pay approximately $23.37.
The tax on the bill would be $50.88 * 0.06 = $<<50.88*0.06=3.05>>3.05.
So the total bill with tax is $50.88 + $3.05 = $<<50.88+3.05=53.93>>53.93.
The tip on the bill would be $53.93 * 0.3 = $<<53.93*0.3=16.18>>16.18.
So the total bill with tip is $53.93 + $16.18 = $<<53.93+16.18=70.11>>70.11.
Since the three of them want to split the bill evenly, each person would pay $70.11 / 3 = $<<70.11/3=23.37>>23.37. Answer: \boxed{23.37}.
