Answer 2

Answer:

The money he will save if he earns $120.00 is $90.00.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

In the figure is the ratio of the savings and the earnings.

Now, to find out that how much savings will be if Miguel earns $120.00.

We need to get the percentage of the ratio of the earning and saving.

So, according to the table:

If he earns $10.00 then he saves $7.50.

$\frac{7.50}{10}\times 100$

$=0.75\times 100$

$=75$

So, if Miguel earns $10.00 he save the 75% of it.

If he earns $50.00 then he saves $37.50.

As we calculate the percentage as the above process then the saving is 75% of the earning.

And, if he earns  $150.00 and save $112.50 then it is also the 75% of the earning as mentioned above.

Now, to find the saving of the earning $120.00.

So, it will be 75% of the earning as we observe in the above case:

75% of $120.00

$\frac{75}{100}\times 120$

$=0.75\times 120$

$=90$

Therefore, the money he will save if he earns $120.00 is $90.00.
