Michelle says that another way to figure their total is to multiply their bill by 1.18. Will Michelle's method work? Explain why or why not.

    Michelle's method WILL work because we have to add an extra 18% to the already total (100) michaels way would work if the tip was apart of the bill, but it is extra. Hence, Michelle's method being correct
