Ok, I'll bite.

FIRST QUESTION:
a. $13.75 multiplied by 1.05 equals total of bill. $14.44. Tax added to the bill is approximately: $ .69
b. 15% of the total bill (14.44 multiplied by .15 = is about $2.17). They should leave a total of : $ 16.61.
C. Did Faaiz come up with ('decided') $2.75 out of the blue or was his meal really $2.75 more than Tat? Nevermind.
$13.75 minus $2.75 is...$11.00
11.00 divided by 2 = 5.50
Tat's dinner = $5.50.
Faais dinner = $ 8.25
Thus $ 13.75.
Faais should pay....$8.25 times 5 % sales tax = 8.66 plus 15% tip = $9.96
Tat should pay........$5.50 times 5 % sales tax = 5.78 plus 15% tip = $6.65
Total .............................................$ 16.61

(I hope you give me some credit on your homework)

Next question.

Easy answer: a little over 1/3.
'exact' answer in fraction form: 35/100 or 7/20
(where is question a?)
b. Original price = $ 124.99
Sale price = should be = $ 92.59 (maybe $92.60)........ or $124.99 divided by 1.35
c. 5% sales tax is computed by: $92.59 multiplied by .05
Total easily calculated by multiplying sales price by 1.05....
Grand total: ....$ 97.22 (rounded up as 'they' always do)
