i already did the problem how do I show my work?

To show your work for this problem, follow these steps to break down the total and confirm your answers.

### Problem Details:
- **Alex and his wife each order:**
  - 2 Ham & Cheese Subs (each $6.25)
  - 1 Tomato Soup ($4.00)
  - 1 Large Soda ($4.00)

### 1. **Calculate the cost of the subs:**
   \[
   \text{Cost of 2 Ham & Cheese Subs} = 2 \times 6.25 = 12.50
   \]

### 2. **Add the cost of the tomato soup:**
   \[
   \text{Cost of the tomato soup} = 4.00
   \]

### 3. **Add the cost of the large soda:**
   \[
   \text{Cost of the large soda} = 4.00
   \]

### 4. **Total cost:**
   \[
   \text{Total amount} = 12.50 + 4.00 + 4.00 = 20.50
   \]

### 5. **Tip calculation (14% tip):**
   Tip is calculated on the total amount of $24.50 (this is if a mistake happened and one counted $4 for drinks for each person):
   \[
   \text{Tip} = 0.14 \times 24.50 = 3.43
   \]

Thus, the tip is $3.43, and the total amount Alex would pay after tipping is $24.50.

If you want to present this clearly, you can format the above steps in your work. Here’s a sample structure you can write or type:

- **Itemized Breakdown**:
  - 2 Ham & Cheese Subs: $12.50
  - 1 Tomato Soup: $4.00
  - 1 Large Soda: $4.00
- **Total before tip**: $20.50
- **If tip considered at 14%** (mistake included): $24.50
  - Tip: $3.43

### 5 Related Questions:
1. What would be the tip if it were calculated based on the actual total of $20.50?
2. How would the total change if a different tip percentage (e.g., 18%) was applied?
3. What would the total be if both ordered medium sodas instead?
4. What if Alex also ordered a salad—how would it affect the total?
5. How can we calculate the price per person if shared equally?

**Tip:** Always double-check if all items ordered are properly added before calculating the tip, as minor errors can change the total!
