The percent tip would be 20% of the cost of the meal. The cost of the meal before tip was $35 and Ryan paid $42. So the tip was $42 - $35 = $7. Divide the tip paid by the cost of the meal and multiply by 100 to find the percent tip.
(7/ 35)* 100 = 20%
(7/ 35)* 100 = 20%
-
42/35=6/5=120%
The new price was 120% of the new meal, so the tip ADDED 20%.
Final answer: 20% tip
Hope this helped!

cost = $ 35
tip = $ 7
% tip = 7/35*100
= 20 %
tip = $ 7
% tip = 7/35*100
= 20 %
