The Hernandez family goes out for dinner, and the price of the meal is $50. The sales tax on the meal is 8%, and they also want to leave a 25% tip. What is the total cost of the meal?

it should be 67.5

Step-by-step explanation:

8% of $50 is 4 that gets you $54, and 25 percent of 54 is 13.5 that would be the 25% tip add the two together to get $67.5

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
