Delilah and a group of friends had excellent service at a restaurant. They would like to give the server a 25 percent gratuity on their $140 bill.

Here we want to calculate the 25% of $140.

Well, first we assume that:

$140 = 100%.

Now, assuming that, we can write the equation:

X = 25%

Where X is the 25% of $140.

Then we have the equations:

$140 = 100%

X = 25%

Let's take the quotient between these equations:

$140/X = (100%/25%)

Now let's solve this for X:

X = (25%/100%)*$140 = 0.25*$140 = $35

Then the tip will be of $35

step-by-step explanation:

one day the were 5 ducks, and their king told them to multiply their kingdom. so each went their own seperate way and met 4 other ducks on their journey.

when the ducks returned to their kingdom, it was discovered that there were 5 groups of 5 ducks. when the kind counted the number of ducks in total (including the ones he sent out earlier) he counted 25.

therefore 5 times 5 is 25.

the end. : )
