Question
Brianna was out at a restaurant for dinner when the bill came. She wanted to leave a 23% tip. If dinner cost dd dollars and cents, which expression represents the cost of dinner plus tip?
Solution
The cost of dinner plus tip can be represented by the expression 1.23d. Here's how we get to that:
- The cost of dinner is represented by d (in dollars).
- Brianna wants to leave a 23% tip. To express this as a decimal, we divide 23 by 100, which gives us 0.23.
- To find the total cost (dinner plus tip), we add the original cost (d) to the tip (0.23d). This gives us d + 0.23d.
- Combining like terms, we get 1.23d.
So, 1.23d represents the total cost of dinner plus the 23% tip.
