D is closest - 20% is actually about $5.48.
You multiply $27.35 by .20 (which is 20%).

First, convert the percentage to a decimal:
20% - 0.2
Next, multiply the decimal by the cost of the meal:
0.2 x $27.35
Equals:
5.47
The closest answer is d)5.50

KairiGal... 20 cents goes into a dollar FIVE times. I suggest you brush up on your own math skills before you go out helping other people with theirs.
