To calculate how much each person will pay, including tax and tip, we'll go through each step thoroughly.
-
Calculate the tax:
- The sales tax in Florida is 6%.
- Tax = 6% of $50.85 = 0.06 * 50.85 = $3.051.
- Rounding to the nearest hundredth: $3.05.
-
Calculate the tip:
- The tip is 30% of the original bill.
- Tip = 30% of $50.85 = 0.30 * 50.85 = $15.255.
- Rounding to the nearest hundredth: $15.26.
-
Calculate the total bill including tax and tip: \[ \text{Total} = \text{Original Bill} + \text{Tax} + \text{Tip} \] \[ \text{Total} = 50.85 + 3.05 + 15.26 = 69.16 \]
-
Split the total bill between Mike and Ariel: \[ \text{Each Person} = \frac{\text{Total}}{2} = \frac{69.16}{2} = 34.58 \]
Therefore, each person will pay $34.58 including tax and tip.
