Question

So-hee has 78 saved. She spends 25.75 on a new backpack. What percent of her savings does she spends?

Answer 1

Explanation:

So-hee spent 25.75 out of her total savings of 78. To calculate the percentage of her savings that she spent, we can use the following formula:

Percentage spent = (Amount spent / Total savings) x 100%

Substituting the values we have:

Percentage spent = (25.75 / 78) x 100%

Percentage spent = 0.33 x 100%

Percentage spent = 33%

Therefore, So-hee spent 33% of her savings on the new backpack.
