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 Florida’s 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 the tax to the nearest hundredth immediately after calculating. Round your final answer to the nearest hundredth.(1 point)
To calculate how much each person will pay, we need to find the total amount including the bill, tax, and tip, and then divide it by the number of people.
First, let's calculate the tax amount. Florida's sales tax is 6%, so we will calculate 6% of the bill total of $50.88:
Tax = 6% * $50.88
Tax = 0.06 * $50.88
Tax = $3.0528 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Next, let's calculate the tip amount. They decide to leave a 30% tip, so we will calculate 30% of the bill total of $50.88:
Tip = 30% * $50.88
Tip = 0.30 * $50.88
Tip = $15.264 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Now, let's calculate the total amount including the bill, tax, and tip:
Total = Bill + Tax + Tip
Total = $50.88 + $3.0528 + $15.264
Total = $69.1928 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Finally, let's divide the total by the number of people which is 3 (Ken, Mike, and Ariel):
Each person's payment = Total / Number of people
Each person's payment = $69.1928 / 3
Each person's payment = $23.06426667
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, each person will pay $23.06.
The total tip amount is 30% of the bill total, so the tip amount is 30/100 * $50.88 = $15.26.
The bill total including tip is $50.88 + $15.26 = $<<50.88+15.26=66.14>>66.14.
The sales tax is 6% of the bill total, so the tax amount is 6/100 * $66.14 = $3.97.
So, each person will pay $66.14 + $3.97 = $<<66.14+3.97=70.11>>70.11. Answer: \boxed{70.11}.
To calculate the amount each person will pay, we need to consider the total bill including tax and tip.
Step 1: Calculate the sales tax.
Sales tax = 6% of the bill total before tax
Sales tax = 6/100 * $50.88
Sales tax = $3.05 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Step 2: Calculate the bill total including tax.
Bill total including tax = $50.88 + $3.05
Bill total including tax = $53.93 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Step 3: Calculate the tip.
Tip = 30% of the bill total before tax
Tip = 30/100 * $50.88
Tip = $15.26 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Step 4: Calculate the individual payment.
Individual payment = (Bill total including tax + Tip) / 3
Individual payment = ($53.93 + $15.26) / 3
Individual payment = $69.19 / 3
Individual payment = $23.07 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Therefore, each person will pay approximately $23.07.
