Answer:

The answer is : 73.3% (to 1 decimal place)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking us to convert the proportion of a certain amount into percentage, and this is done as shown below:

vacation cost = $2252

amount charged = $1650

%of vacation cost that was charged = X%

∴ X% of 2252 = 1650

\frac{X}{100} × 2252 = 1652

\frac{2252X}{100} =1650

2252X = 165000 (dividing both sides by 2252)

\frac{2252X}{2252}=\frac{165000}{2252}

∴ X = 165000 ÷ 2252

X = 73.3%

Ramon earns $1,880 each month and pays $53.30 on electricity. To the nearest tenth of a percent, what percent of Ramon's earning
AfilCa [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Each month, 2.8% Ramon's earnings are spent on electricity.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

You know, that 100 percent are his earnings - $1,880

Now, you need to find out, how much is 1%. You do that by dividing $1,880 by 100.

Now you have to divide the amount he pays on electricity - $53.3 by one percent of his earnings - $18.8

So, now you know, that he pays exactly 2.83511% of his earnings on electricity. But from assignment, you know, that it has to be rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent. The number is 2.8351. So we will round it to 2.8% ,because 3 is rounded down. (https://www.mathsisfun.com/rounding-numbers.html)

100% = $1,880

$1,880/100 = $18.8

$53.3/$18.8 = 2.83511

2.83511% ≈ 2.8%
