    Not Split: 42.00. Split: 21.00 each.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step 1: Find tip. To find the tip, you have to put the percent of the tip into decimal form and then multiply that by the bill. I made a formula for this: b * t = WT. The WT stands for Whole Number Tip. For this question, Multiply 35.00 * 0.20 = 7.

    The tip is 7 dollars.

    Step 2: Add the bill and tip together: 35.00 + 7.00 = 42.00

    Step 3: (This may not apply to all questions like this.) Divide the sum of the tip and bill by 2 because 2 people are mowing the lawn. 42.00 / 2 = 21.00.
