Answer:

  • 1)
    33(1)/(3)\% at the pet store
  • 4)
    66(2)/(3)\% at the clothing store
  • 6) 100% at the two stores

Explanation:

Amount of Money spent by Annie

  • At clothing store=$70
  • At pet store=$35

Total Amount Spent= 70+35=$105

Percentage Spent at each place

Clothing Store


(70)/(105)X100=66(2)/(3)\%

Pet Store


(35)/(105)X100=33(1)/(3)\%

Therefore the following applies:

  • 1) 33 1/3% at the pet store
  • 4)66 2/3% at the clothing store
  • 6) 100% at the two stores
