Method
Calculating Total for Catering Orders
- 1
Step 1: Determine Base Total
Calculate the total cost of the catering order before gratuity. This includes food, drinks, and any additional services.
- 2
Step 2: Calculate Gratuity
Multiply the base total by the gratuity percentage (18%). For example, if the base total is $200, the gratuity would be $200 x 0.18 = $36.

Step 3: Add Gratuity to Base Total
Add the calculated gratuity to the base total to get the total amount due. For example, $200 (base total) + $36 (gratuity) = $236 (total amount due).
