Question

A family spends $450 every month on food. If the family’s income is $1,800 each month, what percent of the income is spent on food.

Answer 1

Answer: 25%

Explanation:

In order to find the percentage, you divide the part by the whole and multiply by 100

In this case, the part is $450, and the whole is $1,800

So,
`(450)/(1800)` = 0.25

0.25 * 100 = 25%

Answer 2

.25 percent
