Tax, Tip, and Discount Word Problems Worksheet | Grade1to6 - Free Printable

Let’s solve each row step by step. We’ll calculate:

- 10% of the bill → just move decimal one place left (or multiply by 0.1)
- 5% (sales tax) → half of 10%
- 15% → 10% + 5%
- 20% → double the 10%

We’ll do this for each bill amount.

---

Row 1: Bill = $12.20

- 10% = $12.20 × 0.1 = $1.22
- 5% = half of $1.22 = $0.61
- 15% = $1.22 + $0.61 = $1.83
- 20% = $1.22 × 2 = $2.44

---

Row 2: Bill = $18.30

- 10% = $18.30 × 0.1 = $1.83
- 5% = half of $1.83 = $0.915 → round to nearest cent = $0.92
- 15% = $1.83 + $0.92 = $2.75
- 20% = $1.83 × 2 = $3.66

*(Note: In real life, we usually round money to the nearest cent. So $0.915 becomes $0.92)*

---

Row 3: Bill = $80.00

- 10% = $80.00 × 0.1 = $8.00
- 5% = half of $8.00 = $4.00
- 15% = $8.00 + $4.00 = $12.00
- 20% = $8.00 × 2 = $16.00

---

Row 4: Bill = $5.75

- 10% = $5.75 × 0.1 = $0.575 → round to $0.58
- 5% = half of $0.58 = $0.29
- 15% = $0.58 + $0.29 = $0.87
- 20% = $0.58 × 2 = $1.16

*(Again, rounding $0.575 up to $0.58 because it’s halfway — standard rule is to round up at .5)*

---

Row 5: Bill = $6.99

- 10% = $6.99 × 0.1 = $0.699 → round to $0.70
- 5% = half of $0.70 = $0.35
- 15% = $0.70 + $0.35 = $1.05
- 20% = $0.70 × 2 = $1.40

---

Row 6: Bill = $2.90

- 10% = $2.90 × 0.1 = $0.29
- 5% = half of $0.29 = $0.145 → round to $0.15
- 15% = $0.29 + $0.15 = $0.44
- 20% = $0.29 × 2 = $0.58

---

Row 7: Bill = $66.25

- 10% = $66.25 × 0.1 = $6.625 → round to $6.63
- 5% = half of $6.63 = $3.315 → round to $3.32
- 15% = $6.63 + $3.32 = $9.95
- 20% = $6.63 × 2 = $13.26

---

Row 8: Bill = $4.50

- 10% = $4.50 × 0.1 = $0.45
- 5% = half of $0.45 = $0.225 → round to $0.23
- 15% = $0.45 + $0.23 = $0.68
- 20% = $0.45 × 2 = $0.90

---

Row 9: Bill = $74.80

- 10% = $74.80 × 0.1 = $7.48
- 5% = half of $7.48 = $3.74
- 15% = $7.48 + $3.74 = $11.22
- 20% = $7.48 × 2 = $14.96

---

Row 10: Bill = $20.25

- 10% = $20.25 × 0.1 = $2.025 → round to $2.03
- 5% = half of $2.03 = $1.015 → round to $1.02
- 15% = $2.03 + $1.02 = $3.05
- 20% = $2.03 × 2 = $4.06

---
