The right answer is Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of meal = $9.75

Cost of meal = 100%

Tip = 15%

Total = 100+15= 115%

Total = [tex]\frac{115}{100}=1.15[/tex]

She can multiply this amount with cost of meal to determine the total cost.

Total cost = $9.75(1.15)

The right answer is Option C.
