Answer:

The cost of dinner alone was $37.145

Step-by-step explanation:

15%=0.15----Convert your percentage into a decimal

43.70*0.15=6.555----Multiply the cost of dinner with the decimal

$43.70-$6.555=$37.145----Subtract the last number(6.555) from the total(43.70) to get the cost of dinner alone of $37.145 -This is making you subtract the percentage from the total!

I hope this helped!
