Answer:

$50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Cost of sushi= $40

Tax= 5%

Tip= 20%

Let us find the amount of the tax and the tip

Tax

=5/100*40

=0.05*40

=$2

Tip

=20/100*40

=0.2*40

=$8

Hence the total amount paid is

=40+2+8

=$50

Answer:

$50

Step-by-step explanation:

To avoid confusion, we can solve for the sales tax and the tip separately.

Tip

  • Original Bill x 20%
  • Original Bill x 1/5
  • $40 x 1/5
  • $8

Tax

  • Original Bill x 5%
  • Original Bill x 1/20
  • $40 x 1/20
  • $2

Total

  • Original Bill + Tip + Tax
  • $40 + $8 + $2
  • $50
