Answer:

$500

Step-by-step explanation:

Wages = $30

Tips = 15% of on customers food bill

if the waiter earns a total of $105, what is the customer's food bill?

15 % of customers food bill = Total earned - wages

= $105 - $30

= $75

15 % of customers food bill = 75

Let x = customer's food bill

15% of x = $75

0.15x = 75

x = 75 / 0.15

= $500

x = $500

Therefore, customer's food bill is $500
