C. Charles should forgo renter's insurance if the premiums will quickly overtake the value of his belongings.
Renter's insurance is a useful and valuable tool to protect tenants against loss or damage of their property, and is a wise purchase in most cases. However, if you are paying more every month in your insurance premiums than the total value of the goods you are protecting, the insurance may no longer be worth the cost.
If yesterday's price was the regular price then the equation $217=62%x can be used to solve for x. so x = $217/0.62=$350. To check the answer, multiply $350 by 0.62 = $217. In other words, x is the unknown regular price so 0.62 times x = $217 and then cross multiplying means dividing $217 by 0.62, to get the answer.
