You and three friends go to dinner. The total for the table comes to $109.45. As a group, you decide to leave a 20% tip and split the total of the check. How much will each person pay?

1 answer

To calculate the tip amount, we first need to find 20% of $109.45.

20% can be written as 20/100 or 0.20.
So, the tip amount would be 0.20 * $109.45 = $21.89.

Adding the tip to the initial total, the final amount becomes $109.45 + $21.89 = $131.34.

Since there are four people in total, each person will pay $131.34 / 4 = $<<131.34/4=32.835>>32.84.

Therefore, each person will pay $32.84, rounded to the nearest penny.
