Answer:

$40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total bill be "x"

Now,

Anna paid 40% (40/100 = 0.4) of the bill, that means

Cassie paid 100 - 40 = 60% of the bill, that is 60/100 = 0.6

Anna paid 0.4x  &  Cassie paid 0.6x

Cassie's amount is 8 dollar more, so we can write:

0.6x - 8 = 0.4x

Now, we solve for x:

0.6x - 0.4x = 8

0.2x = 8

x = 8/0.2

x = 40

THe total bill is $40
