I have $100. I spent $40 on a prize and $45 on food. How do I figure out what % is purchase is from the original amount I had?

You could say that you spent (purchased) 85% of the money that you had.

You spent a total of $85.

If you create the fraction 85/100, that is the same as saying you spent 85% of the money.

Answer:

3/4 divided by 3/8 equals 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal (inverse) of the second fraction.

Take the reciprocal of the second fraction by flipping the numerator and denominator and changing the operation to multiplication. Then the equation becomes

34×83=?

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

3×84×3=2412
