If you're using 7.6 percent, then you're not using 92.4 percent (100-7.6)

To find 92.4 percent of 67.8 billion do:
67,800,000,000*.924=62,647,200,000

Answer: There is 62,64,72,00,000 amount of money is left in the fund.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Total insurance fund of FDIC = 67.8 billions

Percentage of it which it cover several failed banks = 7.6%

We need to find the amount of money left in the fund.

Remaining percentage is given by


100-7.6=92.4\%

So, Amount of money left in the fund is given by


(92.4)/(100)* 67.8* 1000000000\\\\=0.924* 67800000000\\\\=6.26472* 10^(10)=62647200000

Hence, there is 62,64,72,00,000 amount of money is left in the fund.
