Question

Johnny spend 1/7 of his income on Food, 1/10 of his income on gas, and 3/8 of his income on rent. What percentage of his income remains after he has paid for food, gas, and rent?

Answer 1

38.2%

Explanation:

1/7 ≈ 14.29%

1/10 = 10.00%

3/8 = 37.50%

The total that Johnny has allocated for food, gas, and rent is ...

14.29% + 10.00% + 37.50% = 61.79%

So, the remaining amount is ...

100% -61.79% = 38.21%

About 38.2% of Johnny's income remains.
