Buffy and Oz went to dinner. They shared an appetizer that cost $9.00. Each of their entrees was $20.00 and they shared a dessert that was $11.00. If they left a 30% tip, what was the entire price of the meal? Give me reasons, before answering the question

Each of their entrees cost $20.00 so they cost 2 * 20 = $40.00. The appetizer was $9.00, the main meal was $40.00 and the dessert was $11.00 for a total of $60.00. The entire meal cost $60.00 and they left a 30% tip which came to 60 * .30 = $18.00. The meal was $60.00 and the tip was $18.00 so the total bill came to 60 + 18 = $78.00. So the final answer is 78.
