Okay, and btw, don't quote me lol. The yellow is kinda~

Anyways, so, 75, 60% decrease, which means that there is only 40% of the value left.
Right?

Answer 11

While on vacation in Orangeord, Polly went out for a dinner that cost $40. If sales tax in Orangeord is 15% and Polly left a 15% tip on $40, what was the total cost of her meal?

Answer 12

Okay, one step at a time.
$40, sales tax is 15%
So, how much did she pay?

Answer 13

$52 because 15% of 40 is 6 but you have to add it twice so 40 + 6 + 6 = 52.

Answer 14

Lol, yes, you went ahead of me, but yes, I think that that's the answer.
