A restaurant adds a 20% tip to the bills of parties of 6 or more people. Suppose a server waits on five such tables. The bill without the tip for each party is listed in the table. How much did the server make in tips during this shift?
Distributive Property: a(b + c) = ab + ac and (b + c)a = ba = ca
Party 1
Party 2
Party 3
Party 4
Party 5
$185.45 $205.20 $195.05 $245.80 $262.00

$218.70

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to first convert the percentage to the decimal.

20% = 0.2

Now, you need to find 20% of each bill by multiplying each bill by 0.2.

0.2(185.45) + 0.2(205.20) + 0.2(195.05) + 0.2(245.80) + 0.2(262.00)

Because of the distributive property, you can add up the bills and multiply the sum by 0.2.

0.2(185.45 + 205.20 + 195.05 + 245.80 + 262.00)

0.2(1093.50)

218.7

The waiter made $218.70 in tips.
