complete question:
Mira has breakfast at a restaurant. She leaves a 20% tip of $1.80. What is the price of Mira's breakfast, before tip?
Answer:
The price of Mira's breakfast before tip is $9.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mira has a breakfast at a restaurant. she leaves 20% tip of $1.80. The tip she gave was $1.80. let the price of her breakfast be y.
20% of y = 1.80
20/100 × y = 1.80
20y/100 = 1.80
cross multiply
1.80 × 100 = 20y
180 = 20y
divide both sides by 20
y = 180/20
y = $9
The price of Mira's breakfast before tip is $9.
