Weekly Maths Problem

Don’t forget to write out the problem at the top of the page, date the work and show all your workings out (even the wrong answers) and then file the evidence in your folder!

I would like you to show and explain two different ways you could solve this problem.

You have been out to eat and the service was really good and you want to leave a tip for the waiter. Estimate the amount of the tip by rounding the bill to the nearest pound before calculating a15% tip on a bill of £83.87

You can share your answers here on Facebook or in the forum or with me as I visit during the week. Remember you need to show your workings out to get the maximum points.
