You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The food cost 25.
You decide to add in a 20% tip and the state adds in an additional 8.3% sales tax
Total additions = 0.20+%2B+0.083%7D%7D+=+%7B%7B%7B0.283
The total you will pay is 25+%2B+25%2A%280.283%29
25%2A%281.283%29+
$32.075 cents. The state rounds up, so you'll pay $32.08
