Question

Paul wants a bike that cost $400. If he had saved 60% of this amount, how much had he saved.

Answer 1

Hey!


To solve this problem, we'll first start by creating an equation.

Our Created Equation :


`(400 x 60)/(100)`

Now we'll solve it step by step to find the answer.

So we should begin by multiplying the to portion of our fraction.

400 x 60 = 24,000

Next, we divide our answer by 100, since that is the next step to our equation.

24,000 ÷ 100 = 240

So, our answer is...

Paul has already saved $240.00 of the $400.00 he must pay for a new bike.

Hope this helps!
