    you have (4) 6-oz platters so you multiply the price of the 6 oz ($9.95) by 4 which gives you 39.80

    you have (2) 8-oz platters so you multiply the price of the 8 oz ($12.95) by 2 which gives you 25.90

    you have (2) 11 oz platters so you multiply that price (15.95) by 2 which gives you 31.90

    so you add all those together 39.80+25.90+31.90 = $97.60

    now ... 16% = 16/100 or 0.16 so to get the total price you multiply 97.60 * 1.16

    giving you the total price of 113.216 or rounded to an actual dollar and cents amount 113.22

    to find out how much the gratuity alone you would simply multiply 97.60 * 0.16 = $15.62
