# --description--

Now that you have calculated the tip, you need to add it to your `running_total` to find the final bill amount.

Use the `+=` operator to add the value of `tip` to your `running_total`. Finally, use `print()` to display the string `Total with tip:` followed by a space and the value of `running_total`.

# --hints--

You should use the `+=` operator to add the value of `tip` to your `running_total`.

```js
({
    test: () => assert(runPython(`
    _Node(_code).has_stmt('running_total += tip')
    `))
})
```

You should print the string `Total with tip:` followed by a space and the `running_total` variable.

```js
({
    test: () => assert(runPython(`
    _Node(_code).has_call("print('Total with tip:', running_total)") or _Node(_code).has_call("print(f'Total with tip: {running_total}')")`))
})
```

# --seed--

```py
running_total = 0

num_of_friends = 4

appetizers = 37.89
main_courses = 57.34
desserts = 39.39
drinks = 64.21

running_total += appetizers + main_courses + desserts + drinks
print('Total bill so far:', running_total)

tip = running_total * 0.25
print('Tip amount:', tip)
