Wendy took one of her friends out to lunch. The lunches cost $20 and she paid 15% sales tax. If Wendy left a 15% tip on the $20, how much in total did she pay?

@snowflake0531

It's the same thing as the other one, do you know how to do it? or do you just want to check the answer?

lilcutie2:

so 20+15+15

snowflake0531:

Er, not plus 15 You have to multiply the percentage for this one. So, 0.15 times 20

lilcutie2:

3

snowflake0531:

Now add that twice to 20

lilcutie2:

$43

snowflake0531:

Add 3, twice, to 20 aka, 3*2=6 20+6

lilcutie2:

$26

snowflake0531:

yesss, i think.
