Answer:

30.23%

Step-by-step explanation:

Gabriela's monthly take-home pay = $2,800

Her monthly rent = $700

if her monthly take-home pay and her rent increase by $210.

Her monthly take-home pay would be = 2800 + 210 = $3,010

Her monthly rent would be = 700 + 210 = $910

Now we have to calculate the percentage of Gabriela's take-home pay used to pay rent.

$\frac{910}{3010}$ × 100

= 0.3023 × 100

= 30.23%

Gabriela's take-home pay will be used 30.23% to pay rent.
