Hey!

To solve this problem, we'll first start by creating an equation.

Our Created Equation :

$\frac{400 x 60}{100}$

Now we'll solve it step by step to find the answer.

So we should begin by multiplying the to portion of our fraction.

400 x 60 = 24,000

Next, we divide our answer by 100, since that is the next step to our equation.

24,000 ÷ 100 = 240

So, our answer is...

Paul has already saved $240.00 of the $400.00 he must pay for a new bike.

Hope this helps!
