£162

Step-by-step explanation:
50% of 120= 60
5% = 6
30% = 36
35%= 36+6= 42
120+42=162

Answer 2

£162

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first find 35% of £120.

35% here is our multiplier, so we can turn it into a decimal (0.35) in order to use it in our sum.

£120 × 35% = £42

Now add £42 to £120.

£120 + £42 = £162

Super simple!
