Could someone give me a step by step on how to solve this ? At a local restaurant, a couple ordered two dinners for $12.50 each and two drinks for $1.50 each. If the couple left an 18% tip, what was the total cost of the meal?

$15.55

Step-by-step explanation:

12.50 x 2=  25

1.50 x 2= 3

18%=1.8 x 10(1.8)

25+3=28

28/1.8= 15.555555555555555555

Answer= 15.55

Hope this helps.

to find the unit price, we must figure out the cost of one item (in this case one dish towel).   to do this, we divide the total price ($7.92) by the number of items bought (for this problem it is 8, because there are eight dish towels in one pack).  

$7.92/8 = $0.99

therefore, the unit price, or the price of one dish towel, is $0.99.

hope this !
