If needed you will have to estimate or round. but only if needed.

I need to know how to get the cost of the meal prior to adding the 23%.the total after the tip was 56.53.

OpenStudy (ajanijones):

Ok so you turn the tax or tip in to a decimal the you multiply it to the cost then when you get your total from multiplying you add it with 56.53.
