Question

1. scott wants to tip his uber driver 20%. if his commute costs $15, what is the total cost?

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the tip amount

The tip is 20% of $15. To find 20% of 15, we convert 20% to a decimal (0.20) and multiply by 15: $0.20\times15 = 3$.

Step2: Calculate the total cost

Add the tip to the original commute cost. The original cost is $15, and the tip is $3, so the total cost is $15 + 3 = 18$.

Answer:

The total cost is $18.
