Q1. A restaurant bill is £46. A 15% service charge is added. How much is the service charge?
  • A.  £4.60
  • B.  £52.90
  • C.  £6.90
  • D.  £0.69
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: C. £6.90
To find 15% of £46, calculate 46 × 0.15, or find 10% (£4.60) and 5% (£2.30) and add them together. This equals £6.90.

✓ Answer: B. £75
Add the parts of the ratio (3 + 5 = 8). Divide the total amount by the number of parts (£120 ÷ 8 = £15). Multiply this by the larger part of the ratio (5 × £15 = £75).

Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: C. £457.00
