Question

Pls select the correct answer

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

one third of £3000 = £3000 ÷ 3 = £1000

£3000 - £1000 = £2000 ← amount left after paying rent

Add the parts of the ratio, 7 + 3 = 10 parts

Divide the amount left by 10 to find the value of one part of the ratio

£2000 ÷ 10 = £200 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus

3 × £200 = £600

Julie saves £600 each month

Answer 2

B

Explanation:

Rent paid by Julie = (1/3) of 3000

`=(1)/(3)*3000\\\\=1*1000`

= £ 1000

Remaining amount after paying rent = 3000 - 1000 = £ 2000

Expenses : Savings = 7 : 3

Total part = 7 + 3 = 10

Saving part = 3/10

Amount saved = (3/10) of 2000

`=(3)/(10)*2000\\\\=3*200`

= £ 600
