Cost of the meal ordered by Mr. Rodriguez = $6.25 Cost of the meal ordered by Mrs. Rodriguez = $7.50 Cost of each pizza ordered by the two children = $4.99 Then The cost of the 2 pizzas ordered by the 2 children = (2 * 4.99) dollars = 9.98 dollars So The total cost of the orders = (6.25 + 7.50 + 9.98) dollars = 23.73 dollars Percentage of tip on the bill = 15% Then Amount of tip paid = (15/100) * 23.73 dollars = 355.95/100 dollars = 3.56 dollars Percentage of tax paid on the bill = 7.25% Amount of sales tax that was paid = (7.25/100) * 23.73 dollars = 172.04/100 dollars = 1.72 dollars So The total bill that was paid = (23.73 + 3.56 + 1.72) dollars = 29.01 dollars
