Answer:
We conclude that 14% of last semester's college cost was spent on books.
Explanation:
The cost spent at community college = $2200
The amount spent on books = $308
The % of last semesters college costs was spent on books can be determined using the formula
% spent books on = [308 / 2200] × 100
= 0.14 × 100
= 14%
Therefore, we conclude that 14% of last semester's college cost was spent on books.
