Answer 1

Jon Applebe withdrew 37.15% of the amount he initially deposited.

Explanation:

Given that Jon Applebee deposited $ 619 in his savings account, and I have later withdrew $ 230, to determine the integer that represents the amount Jon Applebee deposited the following calculation must be performed:

619 = 100

230 = X
