"Your electricity bill is £122.00 excluding a tariff for the last quarter...."

Having difficulty understanding the construction of this maths problem and wondering if anyone understands...

'Your electricity bill is £122.00 excluding a tariff for the last quarter. Work out the total bill including this tariff which is charged at 11.6%. Give you answer to an appropriate degree of accuracy'

Thanks

Bill + Tariff = Total_Bill

Tariff = Bill * 11.6%

Bill + (Bill * 11.6%) = Total_Bill

Where are you confused?
