Dylan's mother gets a restaurant bill for $25. She has a coupon for 15% off. After the discount is applied, she adds 20% tip for the server. What is the total that Dylan's mom will pay at the restaurant?

Respuesta :

Given:

Amount of bill = $25

Coupon = 15% off

Tip = 20% after discount is applied.

To find:

The total that Dylan's mom will pay at the restaurant.

Solution:

We have,

Amount of bill = $25

Discount = 15%

Amount after discount = 25 - 15% of 25

                             [tex]=25-\dfrac{15}{100}\times 25[/tex]

                             [tex]=25-3.75[/tex]

                             [tex]=21.25[/tex]

So, amount after discount is $21.25.

Tip = 20%

Total Amount = Amount after discount + Tip

[tex]\text{Total Amount}=21.25+\dfrac{20}{100}\times 21.25[/tex]

[tex]\text{Total Amount}=21.25+4.25[/tex]

[tex]\text{Total Amount}=25.5[/tex]

Therefore, Dylan's mom will pay total $25.5 at the restaurant.
