Enter the unknown value that makes this statement true:

45 is
% of 50.

90%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 50 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with X.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that 100%=50.

Step 4: In the same vein, X%=45.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

100%=50(1)

X%=45(2)

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS

(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); We have

100%/X% = 50/45

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

X%/100% = 45/50

X= 90%

Therefore, 45 is 90% of 50.

step-by-step explanation:

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
