Respuesta :

Answer:

$42.84

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways to do this.

One

19% of 36 = 19/100 * 36 = $6.84

Total 36 + 6.84  = $42.84

Two

The second method involves knowing that his total is going to wind up being 119% of the bill. That's 100% + 19%

So the equation look like this

(119/100) * 36

or

(119 * 36) / 100 = 4284 / 100 = $42.84

Note

Both methods give you the same answer.
