1. Emily wants to buy turquoise stones on her trip to New Mexico to give to at least 4 of her friends. The gift shop sells small stones for $4 and large stones for $6. Emily has no more than $30 to spend.

she could get any of them the smalls ones or the large ones because 4x4=16 and 4x6=24 so she could pick the small or the large ones.

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
