Question

Shelia went snowboarding. She spent $118 for the pass and snowboard rental. The snowboard rental cost $25. What percent of the total cost was the pass?

Answer 1

I believe the answer is about 78.81% because you subtract 25 from 118. Then that would be 93. 118 is equal to the 100% and 118 divide by 1.18 equals 100. Divide 93 from 1.18 gives you the answer

Answer 2

78.81%

Explanation:

Shelia spent $118 for pass and snowboard rental .

The snowboard rental cost $25.

% of snowboard rental will be

25/118 x 100%

0.2119 x 100%

21.19%

Since the $118 was spent on snowboard rental and

pass ,percentage of pass will be 100% - 21.19%

78.81%

OR

% spent on pass = $118 - $25 /118 x 100%

93/118 x 100%

0.7881 x 100%

78.81%
