A restaurant bill is $84.97. Complete the table to find the estimated value of the tip in each case? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a dollar.
Tip ------Estimated Value
20%-----$?
15%-----$?
I’m confused.
Huh? 0.20 * 84.97 = 16.994 which is 16.99
ah come on leave 17
What about the 15% one?
Ok "Pls Help" the answer to the 15% one is 13
To find the estimated value of the tip, you need to calculate a certain percentage of the bill. Let's calculate the estimated value for each case:
1. 20% tip:
To calculate a 20% tip, you need to multiply the bill amount by 0.20 (which represents 20% in decimal form).
Estimated Value = $84.97 x 0.20 = $16.994
Rounded to the nearest hundredth of a dollar, the estimated value of a 20% tip would be approximately $17.00.
2. 15% tip:
Similarly, to calculate a 15% tip, you need to multiply the bill amount by 0.15 (which represents 15% in decimal form).
Estimated Value = $84.97 x 0.15 = $12.7455
Rounded to the nearest hundredth of a dollar, the estimated value of a 15% tip would be approximately $12.75.
So, the estimated values for the tips are:
20% tip: $17.00
15% tip: $12.75
