Problem:

Ramona went out with her 3 sisters, they spent $58 plus 9% tax on their meal. They also left 15% tip. If they divided up the bill evenly, how much did each of them spend?

Solution:

[tex] \frac{58 + 58(9\% + 15\%)}{3} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{58 + 58(0.09 + 0.15)}{3} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{58 + 58 \times 0.24}{3} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{58 + 13.92}{3} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{71.92}{3} [/tex]

[tex] = 23.97[/tex]

Answer:

Each of them did spend $23.97
