Alice went to the movie with 2 of her friends and spent $10.50. 30% of the total wad spent on movie snacks. Which proportion could be used to calculate the total amount that Alice spent on movie snacks?A. 30/100 = x/10.5B. 30/100 = 10.5/ xC. 10.5/100 = 30/xD. x/100 = 10.5/30

Answer 1

Alice spend a total of $10.50, and the 30% of total was spent on snacks.

So, if we call x the money spent on snacks we have that the ratio between x and total spent money is 30%:

`(x)/(10.5)=(30)/(100)`
