Question

1. jaden goes to dinner with his family. their total bill comes to $52.25. they received great service, so they decide to leave a 20% tip. how much should they leave for a tip?

$16.12
$1.05
$10.45
$2.61

Explanation:

Step1: Convert percentage to decimal

To find 20% of the bill, we first convert 20% to a decimal. 20% is equivalent to $0.20$ (since $20\%=\frac{20}{100} = 0.20$).

Step2: Multiply by total bill

We multiply this decimal by the total bill amount of $\$52.25$. So the tip amount $T$ is calculated as $T = 52.25\times0.20$.
Calculating $52.25\times0.20$: $52.25\times0.2 = 10.45$.

Answer:

\$10.45 (corresponding to the option with \$10.45)
