Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find 20% of their bill-$40.

So we write a proportion with fractions.

20/100 = x/40

Then we cross multiply. So 40 and 20 will get multiplied, and 100 and x will get multiplied. We will get this:

800 = 100x

Divide both sides by 100 to solve this.

Then we will get:

$8 = x  or  x = $8

Now that we know 20% of the bill this will also represent the tip. Our tip is $8.
