Answer:

A.$3.90

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. So we have $26 and the tip is 15%, so we just find 15% of $26
  2. A percentage is a number divided by 100, so 15% is the fraction [tex]\frac{15}{100}[/tex]
  3. Now what fraction of 26 is [tex]\frac{15}{100}[/tex] ? We multiply and see
  4. So [tex]\frac{15}{100}*26=\frac{15*26}{100}=\frac{390}{100}=3.90[/tex] so $3.90 is 15% 0f $26
  5. Then $3.90 is the amount of the tip
