$26.91

Step-by-step explanation:

total = 23

to find 17% percent of 23, change 17% to a decimal

17%....0.17

multiple 0.17 times 23

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the percentage to get it into decimal form.

[tex]\frac{17}{100}[/tex] = [tex].17[/tex]

Then, multiply the total by .17.

[tex]23[/tex] x [tex].17[/tex] = [tex]3.91[/tex]

Last, add the total and the tip together.

[tex]23+3.91=26.91[/tex]
