Answer:
Each person paid $7.67
Step-by-step explanation:
Total price of lunch = $20
They tipped their server 15% of that amount.
Amount of tip =[tex]15\% \times 20 = \frac{15}{100} \times 20 = 3[/tex]
Total price of lunch including tip = 3+20=$23
Now James and Sarah shared the price of lunch and the tip equally
Each person paid amount =[tex]\frac{23}{3}=7.67[/tex]
Hence each person paid $7.67
