Rosa Went to have a manicure that cost $25 she wanted to tip the technician and 15% and tax is 7% how much did she spend total for the manicure

The correct answer is $30.5 or $31 if rounded

Explanation:

To find the total Rosa spent on the manicure, it is necessary to calculate the money spent on taxes and the money she tipped to the technician. The process is shown below:

Taxes:

$25 represents 100% of the cost and 7% percent represents the total taxes.

1. Write the values using x as the value you want to know

25 = 100

x   = 7

2. Use cross multiplication

x 100 =  175

3. Solve this equation

x = 175 / 100

x = 1.75 (Total price for taxes)

Tip:

Repeat the process but in this case calculate the 15% of $25

25 = 100

x =  15

x 100 = 375

x = 375 / 100

x = 3.75

Total: Finally, add the three values

$25 (cost of the manicure) + $ 1.75 (taxes) + $3.75 (tip) = $30.5 or $31 if rounded
