Jesse buys his coworkers lunch from the local steakhouse. The food costs $105.79, and the sales tax rate is 9%. Jesse wants to leave a 20% tip based on the pre-tax amount. How much will the total be, including tax and tip? I need the answer fasttt
To find the tax amount, we need to calculate 9% of $105.79.
Tax amount = (9/100) * $105.79 = $9.52.
Now, we need to calculate the pre-tax amount to apply the 20% tip.
Pre-tax amount = $105.79 - $9.52 = $96.27.
To find the tip amount, we need to calculate 20% of $96.27.
Tip amount = (20/100) * $96.27 = $19.25.
Finally, we add the tax, tip, and pre-tax amount to find the total amount.
Total amount = $105.79 + $9.52 + $19.25 = $134.56.
Therefore, the total amount, including tax and tip, is $134.56.
