Question

The newborn baby, Jake, needs some supplies. Jake's mom gave you this list of things he needs. You and your friend have agreed to spend $115 of the $300 on Jake. You spend 15% of it on a new blanket, 25% of it on toys, and 40% of it on clothes. How much money do you have left to spend on diapers for Jake? (3 points)

Answer 1

Answer:

You have $23 left to spend on diapers for Jake.

Step-by-step explanation:

To be able to find the answer, first you need to calculate the amount you would spend on blanket:

$115*15%=$17.25

Now, you need to calculate the amount you would spend on toys:

$115*25%=$28.75

Then, you need to calculate the amount you would spend on clothes:

$115*40%=$46

Now, you need to add this values up and subtract the total from $115:

$17.25+$28.75+$46=$92

$115-$92=$23

According to this, the answer is that you have $23 left to spend on diapers for Jake.
