Question

Reinel saves 30% of every pay check. His paycheck last week was 560$. How much did Reniel save last week?

Answer 1

168$

Explanation:

You need to find 30% of 560.

1.) First, you must do 560 times 30%. Turn 30% into a simplified fraction by putting 30 over 100. You can simplify 30/100 to 3/10.

2.) Next, multiply 560 by 3/10, which equals 168.

Answer 2

I’m not sure if you are doing ratios and proportion but this is my answer:

30/100 = n/560

30 x 560 = 16,800

16,800 ÷ 100 = 168

Reinel saves $168 last week
