Question

10. Jenn went to the farmer's market with $40. She brought a 10 lb bag of

potatoes for $6, a pie for $8,4 qt frest strawberries for $4 per qt, and 5 lb

of apples at $1. 49 per lb. What percent of the $40 did she still have when

she left? *

Answer 1

Explanation:

Find all the expenses:

potatoes: $6

pie: $8.4

strawberry: $4

apples: $1.49 * 5 => $7.45

total=> 6 + 8.4 + 4 + 7.45 = $25.85

Rule:

$40 = 100%

$25.85 = x%

=> x = ($25.85 * 100%) / $40 = 64.625%

hey double check if I added wrong, and if it is repeat the calculation,

hope it helps
