Question

Nina wants to buy a bicycle that cost $150. She has 6% of the total cost of the bicycle. How much money has Nina saved? Show work please?

Answer 1

150*6%=$9
$150*.06=$9

Answer 2

To start you need to multiply the amount by the percent. In this case $×%=x
When x=your answer. (In dollars)

Now you convert 6% to a decimal:
6%=0.6

So if we take
$150 and multiply it by 6% we get:

150×.06=9

And so she saved $9
