Question

Lisa has $580 budgeted for a trip she wants to spend five eights of it at her budget and travel expenses to the nearest cent what is she willing to spend on travel expenses?

Answer 1

since it is 5/8ths of 580, multiply 5/8 by 580: 580(5/8) = 362.5 Then it says round to the nearest cent which is 0.5. So she is willing to spend $362.5 of her budget.
