56.53 * 17%
turn 17% into a decimal
what do you get
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i guess it can't be smaller than the cost before the tip
who writes these?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
exactly
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it would be a miracle if you left a tip and paid less in total than the original bill
maybe the waiter tipped you

.17 @moser90

also, i'm thinking it's B
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how would you leave paying less then the meal
multiply .17 by 56.53
what do you get
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then add that to 56.53 and that is your answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
C! My bad, I was only thinking about the tip itself. Looking at it now, it's looks obvious haha
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah that is what me and @satellite73 were saying

c.cc. you change 17% to .17 and then multiply it by the bill and thats how you get your total with tip.
