Question

Mr. Hollins determines that he gives away $800 each month. If he gives away 16% of his budget, then how much is his overall budget

Answer 1

5000 dollars

Explanation:

Let his budget be x

16% of x is 800 dollars

.16 * x = 800

Divide each side by .16

.16x/.16 = 800/.16

x=5000

His budget is 5000 dollars
