Question

joe has $200. he gives 1/10 of it to flo. he gives 4/10 of it to zoe. he keeps the rest. how much does each person get

Answer 1

1/10 of 200 is 20 (
`(1*200)/(10) =20`), flo gets 20

4/10 of 200 is 80 (
`(4*200)/(10) = (800)/(10)=80`), Zoe gets 80.

And he gets the rest: 200 - 20 -80 =100: so he gets 100.
