The amount of the tip is 5.40 and the total bill would be 41.40
Set up the equation as follows, with x representing the unknown number: x * % = tip (substitute with the known numbers, 15% is expressed as .15) x * .15 = 5.25 (divide both side by .15 to solve the initial amount of the bill) x = 35.00 (this is the initial amount of the bill) 35.00 + 5.25 = 40.25 (this is the total amount, including the tip)
The custom varies from one country to another. There is sometimes a conventional percentage of the total amount that is given.
