Let's give the variable that you are trying to answer for a symbol. Let's call it X.

X = the amount of money both Greg and Thomas had in October

We know that in November, Greg added $120 to his account. So, Greg's account has: X + 120

We know that Thomas increased the money in his account by 20%, so Thomas' account has: X + 0.2X, or 1.2X

We know that these two amounts are equal:
X + 120 = 1.2X

Solve for X:
X + 120 - X = 1.2X - X
120 = .2X
120 / .2 = .2X / .2
600 = X

How do you write 70% as a fraction in simplest form ?
alexdok [17]
70% equals to 70/100 in fraction form.
But, you need to write it in simplest form. so, divide both of them from 10 'cause they both can divide completely by it.
70/100 = 7/10
so, your answer is 7/10
