Ok, I%26#039;ll bite.





FIRST QUESTION:


a. $13.75 multiplied by 1.05 equals total of bill. $14.44. Tax added to the bill is approximately: $ .69


b. 15% of the total bill (14.44 multiplied by .15 = is about $2.17). They should leave a total of : $ 16.61.


C. Did Faaiz come up with (%26#039;decided%26#039;) $2.75 out of the blue or was his meal really $2.75 more than Tat? Nevermind.


$13.75 minus $2.75 is...$11.00


11.00 divided by 2 = 5.50


Tat%26#039;s dinner = $5.50.


Faais dinner = $ 8.25


Thus $ 13.75.


Faais should pay....$8.25 times 5 % sales tax = 8.66 plus 15% tip = $9.96


Tat should pay........$5.50 times 5 % sales tax = 5.78 plus 15% tip = $6.65


Total ........................................... 16.61





(I hope you give me some credit on your homework)





Next question.





Easy answer: a little over 1/3.


%26#039;exact%26#039; answer in fraction form: 35/100 or 7/20


(where is question a?)


b. Original price = $ 124.99


Sale price = should be = $ 92.59 (maybe $92.60)........ or $124.99 divided by 1.35


c. 5% sales tax is computed by: $92.59 multiplied by .05


Total easily calculated by multiplying sales price by 1.05....


Grand total: ....$ 97.22 (rounded up as %26#039;they%26#039; always do)
