Solve Problems Involving Tips

TEKS Math: 7.4.D

(D) Solve problems involving ratios, rates, and percents, including multi-step problems involving percent increase and percent decrease, and financial literacy problems

AU Math: ACMNA158

(Y7) Find percentages of quantities and express one quantity as a percentage of another, with and without digital technologies. (ACMNA158)

ACMNA187

(Y8) Solve problems involving the use of percentages, including percentage increases and decreases, with and without digital technologies (ACMNA187)

ACMEM011

(Y11-12) Calculate a percentage of a given amount (ACMEM011)

ACMEM013

(Y11-12) Apply percentage increases and decreases in situations; for example, mark-ups, discounts and GST (ACMEM013)

CCSS Math: 7.RP.3

7.RP.3 Use proportional relationships to solve multistep ratio and percent problems. Examples: simple interest, tax, markups and markdowns, gratuities and commissions, fees, percent increase and decrease, percent error.

This number sense lesson focuses on solving problems involving tips. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the problem, identifying the initial tip percent and the initial amount paid. Then, they convert the tip percentage to a decimal number and calculate the tip by multiplying the tip decimal and initial amount paid. Finally, they calculate the total amount paid by adding the initial amount and the tip, and then they interpret the total amount paid in a complete sentence. In addition to the lesson, there are eight pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
