You have a restaurant bill of $46.32. If you are taxed 7 1/2 and decide to tip your server 20%, how much is your total? a.
$59.75
b.
$59.05
c.
$58.92
d.
$58.87

The correct answer is B. $59.05.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that I have a restaurant bill of $ 46.32, if I am taxed 7 1/2 and decide to tip my server 20%, to determine how much is my total, the following calculation must be performed:

1/2 = 0.5

46.32 + (46.32 x 0.075) + (46.32 x 0.2) = X

46.32 + 3.474 + 9.264 = X

49.79 + 9.26 = X

59.05 = X

Thus, the total amount that I must pay is $ 59.05.
