Deon had $25 then he spent $15 on lunch. What percentage of his money did deon spend on lunch

Answer 1

Initial amount = $25

Amount spent on lunch = $15

The percentage of money spent on lunch

`\frac{Amount\text{ spent}}{Initial\text{ amount}}\text{ x 100\%}`

`(15)/(25)\text{ x 100 \%}`

`\begin{gathered} (1500)/(25)^{} \\ =\text{ 60\%} \end{gathered}`
