Allam just finished a great meal at a restaurant in wisconsin. the sales tax in wisconsin is 5%, and it is customary to leave a tip of 15% for the server. the tip amount is calculated on the price of the meal before the tax is applied. (sales tax is not calculated on tips.)
if allam ordered a $15 meal, how much money will he have to pay with tax and tip?

He will have to pay 18$.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we calculate the 15 % of the meal to know how much money he will leave as a tip:

15$ 100%

x=15.15:100=2.2515%

He will leave as a tip 2.25$. Now we calculate the sales tax.

15$ 100%

x=15.5:100=0.755%

Now we add everything and we'll get:

$15 + $2.25 + $0.75 = 18$

The Answer is 18
