Question

Stella set up a business washing cars. She earned $80 in March. She is projected to earn 130% more in April. How much is Stella projected to make in April? $104 $184 $210 $234

Answer 1

A: $104

Explanation:

Since she is projected to earn 130% more in April, it means that she is expected to make 30% more of 100%, which is 80.

Here's what I did-

1. (trying to find 30% of 80) 0.3 x 80 = 24

2. (adding 30% back to the 100% or 80) 24 + 80 = 104

Therefore, I think the answer is... A: $104
