Ken, Mike, and Artel are eating out at their favorite restaurant. They each order a sandwich combo and plan to spilt the bill evenly. The service they receive at the restaurant is amazing, so they decide to leave a 30% tip. Their bill total is $50.88 before tax. If Florida's sales tax is 6%, how much will each person pay? Both tp and tax are calculated based on the original total of the bill. Round the tip and the tax to the nearest hundredth immediately after calculating. Round your final answer to the nearest hundredth. (1 point)

First, let's calculate the amount of the tip. The bill total before tax is $50.88. To calculate the tip, we multiply the bill total by 0.30: 50.88 * 0.30 = $<<50.88*0.30=15.26>>15.26

Next, let's calculate the amount of the sales tax. The bill total is $50.88. To calculate the tax, we multiply the bill total by 0.06: 50.88 * 0.06 = $<<50.88*0.06=3.05>>3.05

Now, let's add the tip and the tax to the original bill total to find the new total: 50.88 + 15.26 + 3.05 = $<<50.88+15.26+3.05=69.19>>69.19

Since Ken, Mike, and Artel plan to split the bill evenly, we divide the new total by 3 to find how much each person will pay: 69.19 / 3 = $<<69.19/3=23.06>>23.06

Therefore, each person will pay $23.06.
