The Hu family goes out for lunch, and the price of the meal is $54. The sales tax on the meal is 6%, and the family also leaves a 15% tip on the pre-tax amount. What is the total cost of the meal?

The total cost of meal is $65.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of the meal = $54

Sales tax on meal = 6%

Tip given= 15% on pre-tax amount

We need to find total cost of meal.

First finding sales tax amount:

We need to calculate 6% of 54

So, the sales tax would be $3.24

Now, we need to find tip amount

We will find 15% of 54

So, the tip given would be $8.1

The total cost of meal = Price of meal + Sales Tax + Tip

                                      = 54+3.24+8.1

                                      = 65.34

So, the total cost of meal is $65.34
