Question

The Jenkins family's monthly budget is

Answer 1

Answer:

$240

Step-by-step explanation:

They spend 5% of their monthly income on transportation, so you want to work out 5% of 4800.

An easy trick with 5% is to divide by 10 (drop the ending 0) and then divide by 2. This would be 4800/10/2, or 480/2, which gives 240.
