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) $$
First, let's calculate the amount of tax on the bill. The bill total before tax is $50.88, and Florida's sales tax is 6%. Therefore, the tax amount is 50.88 * 6/100 = $3.053.
Next, let's calculate the tip amount. The bill total before tax is $50.88, and they plan to leave a 30% tip. Therefore, the tip amount is 50.88 * 30/100 = $15.264.
Now, let's calculate the total amount each person needs to pay. The original bill total is $50.88. Adding the tax amount, we have $50.88 + $3.053 = $53.933. Adding the tip amount, we have $53.933 + $15.264 = $69.197.
Since they plan to split the bill evenly, each person will pay $69.197 / 3 = $23.07.
Rounding to the nearest hundredth, each person will pay $23.07.
WRONG
Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct the calculation.
The bill total before tax is $50.88.
First, let's calculate the tax amount. The tax rate is 6%, so the tax amount is 50.88 * 6/100 = $3.05 (rounded to the nearest hundredth).
Now, let's calculate the total bill amount including tax. The total bill amount is $50.88 + $3.05 = $53.93 (rounded to the nearest hundredth).
Next, let's calculate the tip amount. They plan to leave a 30% tip. The tip amount is 53.93 * 30/100 = $16.18 (rounded to the nearest hundredth).
Finally, let's calculate how much each person needs to pay. The total bill amount including tax and tip is $53.93 + $16.18 = $70.11 (rounded to the nearest hundredth).
Since they plan to split the bill evenly, each person will pay $70.11 / 3 = $23.37 (rounded to the nearest hundredth).
To calculate how much each person will pay, we need to consider the bill total, the sales tax, and the tip.
First, let's calculate the sales tax. The sales tax in Florida is 6%. We need to find 6% of $50.88.
Sales Tax = 6% of $50.88 = 0.06 * $50.88
To find 6% of $50.88, we can multiply $50.88 by 0.06:
Sales Tax = $50.88 * 0.06
Sales Tax = $3.0528
Now let's calculate the total bill amount including sales tax. We add the original bill total to the sales tax amount:
Total Bill Amount = $50.88 + $3.0528
Total Bill Amount = $53.9328
Next, let's calculate the tip amount. The tip is 30% of the total bill amount. To find 30% of $53.9328, we multiply it by 0.30:
Tip Amount = $53.9328 * 0.30
Tip Amount = $16.17984
Now, let's add the tip amount to the total bill amount:
Final Bill Amount = Total Bill Amount + Tip Amount
Final Bill Amount = $53.9328 + $16.17984
Final Bill Amount = $70.11264
Since the bill needs to be split evenly among three people, we divide the final bill amount by 3:
Amount per person = Final Bill Amount / 3
Amount per person = $70.11264 / 3
Amount per person ≈ $23.37
Therefore, each person will pay approximately $23.37.
