Lenicia is a waitress and just received $12.45 for a tip for a meal that cost $56.75. is the percentage of her tip above or below the standard 15%?

above 15%
below 15%

First, we have to know how much percentage the tip is from the meal cost. So,

($12.45 ÷ $56.75 ) * 100 = 21.94%

Thus, it is above the standard 15%. It is a good day for Lenicia! Keep it coming :)

1. isolate the variable, in this case, d. subtract 35.5 on both sides of the equation.2. 52 subtracted by 35.5 is 16.53. therefore your answer would be d= 16.5this is the basics of pre algebra, isolating variable through adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing, if you have any other questions to ask just comment!

Answer is either b or c
