I........don't know how to solve this. It's just a page I have to do in a math book. Any kind soul out there to help me? I will be berry glad ^^
The question is....
"Joe goes online to buy a concert ticket for $80. When he clicks "BUY," an $18 service fee is added. What percent of the ticket price was added for the service fee?"
This doesn't make any sense- I'm supposed to know this lol

you have to do 18/80
that would make 0.225 or 22.5%
if this was wrong it'll be so embarrassing lmao
