If you go out to eat with 3 friends and your meal was $72.50, there is 6.75% sales tax
and you should tip the waiter 15%. How much should each person pay?
Tax $
Total meal cost
Tip $
Total cost of meal with tip
Price for each person

Now, there is a 6.75% sales tax and a 15% tip on the waiter (we assume that the tip is based on the total meal cost, after the tax is applied).

Then the total meal cost is:

C = $72.50*( 1 + 6.75%/100%) = $72.50*(1 + 0.0675) = $77.39

Now we also need to add the tip, which is a 15% of that, so the total cost with the tip included is:

C' = $77.39*(1 + 15%/100%) = $88.998 = $90

(Where we rounded up).

Then, if there are 3 friends, each one must pay:

$90/3 = $30

Each friend must pay $30.
