There are 5 people in the Holcombe family

What was the cost per person for the meal, including sales tax and tip?

$13.77 per person in the family

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of the meal = $54.65

Sales tax rate = 8%

Sales tax amount = 8% of $54.65

= 8/100 × 54.65

= 0.08 × 54.65

= $4.372

Tip = 18% of $54.65

= 18/100 × 54.65

= 0.18 × 54.65

= $9.837

Total cost of the dinner = Cost of the meal + Sales tax amount + Tip

= $54.65 + $4.372 + $9.837

= $68.859

There are 5 people in the Holcombe family

What was the cost per person for the meal, including sales tax and tip?

cost per person for the meal, including sales tax and tip = Total cost of the dinner / total number of people in the family

= $68.859 / 5

= $13.7718
