Question

Juliet is trying to increase her savings account and she decides that she is going save an additional $700 every month. If her monthly take home pay is $5,430, what proportion of her monthly take home pay is she saving?

Answer 1

Take the full amount of her pay and multiply it by .0007 equaling 3.8ish percent

Answer 2

Answer:
`(70)/(543)` of her monthly take home pay is saved by her.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount of monthly home pay = $5430

Amount of savings = $700

We need to find the proportion of her monthly take home pay is saving.

So, Proportion of her monthly take home pay which is saving is given by

`(700)/(5430)\\\\=(70)/(543)`

Hence,
`(70)/(543)` of her monthly take home pay is saved by her.
