Answer:

Keith has 1250 in savings.

Explanation:

We know that 28% is equal 350 dollars out of a bigger, total amount.

We can set this up as an equation as such: 28/100 = 350/x

If you cross multiply 100 and 350, you get a product of 35,000. To complete the cross multiplying, you divide 35,000 by the number 28 to get an answer of 1250.

1250 = x, therefore, Keith has 1250 total in savings.
