I think it is the third one necause......
Since 35% is 0.35 ( by moving the decimal point 2 spots to the left) and 100% (the total value) is 1, we want to see how much we want to multiply the value (we'll call it x for now) by to get the total value. To get that, we divide 1 by 0.35 to get 1/0.35. Therefore, the formula is x*1/0.35
Answer:
Eleanor and Peter's total income
= $597.63
Step-by-step explanation:
Eleanor's Income:
Paycheck = $380.48
Eleanor's Expenses:
Birthday gift= $16.50
Peter's income
Paycheck = $120
Sales of his college textbook = $13.65
Check from Peter's father= $100
Peter's total income =Paycheck + Sales of his college textbook + Check from Peter's father
= $120 + $13.65 + $100
= $233.65
Eleanor and Peter's total income
= Eleanor's Income + Peter's total income - Eleanor's Expenses
= $233.65 + $380.48 - $16.50
= $597.63
Eleanor and Peter's total income
= $597.63
Distribute the .15 on the right side to get:
20 + .5x + 3 + .075x
Then, combine like terms (add numbers together and add x terms together):
.575x + 23
...and that's your final answer!
