Yuko added a 15 percent tip when she paid her cab driver. If the fare was $25.50, what was the total amount she paid? A. $28 B. $30 C. $31

B. $30

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the amount of the tip.

Multiply the tip rate and taxi fare.

tip rate * taxi fare

The tip rate is 15% and the taxi fare is $25.50

15% * 25.50

Convert 15% to a decimal. Divide 15 by 100 or move the decimal place two spots to the left.

15/100=0.15

15.0 ---> 1.5 ---> 0.15

0.15 * 25.50

3.825

The tip amount is $3.825

Next, find the total amount she paid.

Add the taxi fare and the tip amount.

taxi fare + tip amount

The taxi fare is $25.50 and the tip amount is $3.825

$25.50 + $3.825

$29.325

Round to the nearest dollar. Typically, this would round down to $29, but that is not an answer choice. So, if we round up, the next best answer is $30.

Therefore, the best answer choice is B. $30
