Suppose you want to treat your office team to lattes at a local coffee shop. The drinks are $4.25 each plus you plan to buy a $2 scone for yourself. You also tip the barista 10% and have to pay 8.25% sales tax. How many lattes can you afford if you have $60 to spend?

Answer:

I'd say you could but 11 lattes

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all I worked out the complete price of the latte which is $4.45*1.1825. Then I took away from the $60 I have to spend the price of the scone plus the sales tax and tip ($2*1.1825).

That leaves you with about 11 lattes plus some change... I think... Sorry this is my first answer here. Hopefully it helps...
