Jackson's mom limits the amount of time he is allowed to play video games. after Jackson plays for 9 minutes, his mom tells him that he has used up 30% of his time. how many more minutes can Jackson play before he uses all of his time?

(? representing the whole that you have to find)

9/? = 30%/100%
9 • 100 = 900
900/30 = 30

First off Jackson's mom sucks for limiting game time and second of the answer is 30 minutes. If 9 is 30 percent that means 3 is 10 percent. 3 times 10 is 30. So 30 minutes
