Answer 1

To find the total cost of Karen's haircut including the tip, you first need to calculate the tip amount.

1. Calculate the tip:

   • Tip = 20% of $13.99
   • Tip = 0.20 × 13.99 = $2.798

2. Add the tip to the original cost:

   • Total Cost = Original Cost + Tip
   • Total Cost = $13.99 + $2.798 = $16.788

3. Round to the nearest hundred dollars and 27 cents:

   • Rounding $16.788 gives us $16.79.

Therefore, the answer is d) $16.79.
