Steve made $50 taking leafs and $75 mowing lawns. He gave 60% of his earnings to his mother. How much did Steve give to his mother?

Ps: pls show how you set up the problem!

Answer 1

Steve gave his mom $75 since you do 50+75 which is 125 and then 10% of 125 is 12.5 so you take 12.5*6 since it is 60% and you get 75 so therefore, Steve gave his mom 75 dollars

Answer 2

Explanation:

He gave $75 dollars to his mother

50+75=$125

$125 x 60% = 75
