Experts-
I can see the calculation way of solving this, but are there any other ways to get the answer?
A restaurant meal cost $35.50 and there was no tax. If the tip was more than 10 percent but less than 15 percent of the cost of the meal, then the total amount paid must have been between
a) $40 and $42
b) $39 and $41
c) $38 and $40
d) $37 and $39
e) $36 and $37
b
