Q. Maggie took her dad out to lunch for his birthday. Their lunch cost $23\$23, and the local sales tax is 9%9\%. If Maggie left a 20%20\% tip on the $23\$23, how much in total did she pay? $\$
  1. Calculate Sales Tax: Calculate the sales tax on the lunch cost.\newlineSales tax = Lunchcost×TaxpercentageLunch cost \times Tax percentage\newline= 23×910023 \times \frac{9}{100}\newline= 23×0.0923 \times 0.09\newline= $2.07\$2.07
  2. Calculate Total Cost: Calculate the total cost with tax.\newlineTotal cost with tax = Lunch cost + Sales tax\newline= 2323 + 2.072.07\newline= $25.07\$25.07
  3. Calculate Tip Amount: Calculate the tip amount.\newlineTip = Lunch cost×Tip percentage\text{Lunch cost} \times \text{Tip percentage}\newline= 23×2010023 \times \frac{20}{100}\newline= 23×0.223 \times 0.2\newline= $\$44.6060
  4. Calculate Total Amount Paid: Calculate the total amount paid including tip.\newlineTotal amount paid = Total cost with tax + Tip\newline= $\(25\).\(07\) + \(4\).\(60\)\(\newline\)= \(\$29.67\)
