Answer:
38.2%
Step-by-step explanation:
1/7 ≈ 14.29%
1/10 = 10.00%
3/8 = 37.50%
The total that Johnny has allocated for food, gas, and rent is ...
14.29% + 10.00% + 37.50% = 61.79%
So, the remaining amount is ...
100% -61.79% = 38.21%
About 38.2% of Johnny's income remains.
I would think this is many solutions, the reason is because, there is no specific answer (y) so, x could be anything because it would have to equal to y, which could also be anything! I hope im right! Sorry if im wrong!
What you wanna do here is use a calculator, as "e" in mathematics refers to the "e" on a calculator. The tricky part about this question is that the answer for the equation is the given percentage, NOT the value for "x". From there, plug in the multiple choice answers for "x" and see which one works!
In this case, A is the correct answer. B is absurdly large, so I omitted it immediately in the attached picture.
