Nicole buys a meal in a town with a 9% sales tax. she tips 19% on the bill before adding the sales tax. she pays a total of $23.35. what should be the original cost of her meal?

The first one, i believe, would be correct. all the others have one thing in common, and that's that they have repeating numbers. in the second one, x and y have repeating 6's and 3's, and in the third, x and y have repeating 6's as well. in the last one, there are repeating 3's. the first one has no repeating numbers.

There is no question, there is just the answer.
