for every rand of tip left at umhlango rock restaurants,
74% went to the waiter
5% went to the host,
6% went the bartender, and
15% went to the runner.
On one night a large party spend R7500 on dinner and left a 20% tip.
What was the amount of the tip left?
.20 * 7500 = R1500 is the tip
Determine the amounts distributed to the waiter, host, the bartender, and the runner.
.74*1500 = R1110 for waiter
.05*1500 = R75 for the host
.06*1500 = R90 for the bartender
.15*1500 = R225 for the runner
