A group of friends was working on a student film. They spent $330 on costumes, which was 55% of their total budget. What was the
total budget for their student film?
1 answer:
Answer:
$600
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "x" represent their total budget for the film.
Amount spent on costumes = $330
Percent spent on costumes = 55%
Therefore:
55% of x = $330
55/100 × x = 330
55x/100 = 330
Cross multiply
55x = 100 × 330
55x = 33,000
Divide both sides by 55
x = 33,000/55
x = 600
Total budget = x = $600
