Question

Please help! I don’t understand. Thank you! (10 points) you went to the mall with $45. you spent 40% of your money on a new hat. of the remaining money, you spent 15% on a snack. how much did you spend on the snack? show your thinking.

Answer 1

$4.05

Explanation:

40% of $45 =

(45 x 40)/100

= $18

Remaining money after spending on a hat

= $45 - $18 = $27.

15% of $27 spent on a snack

= (27 x 15) / 100 = $4.05

so

$4.05 was spent on the snack

Answer 2

what's up? answer is $4.05

explained:
10% of $45 would be $4.50
4.50x4= 18
45-18= 27
10% of 27 is $2.70 half of $2.70 is $1.35
$2.70 + $1.35 = $4.05
you spent $4.05 on the snack
