Step-by-step explanation:
4x 3.5 + 4x 2.3
14 + 9.2
= 23.2
The water bill was 1/5 of the total, so was 0.2*$540 = $108.
If the scholarship pays 75% of her classes cost, that means that she has to pay the 25% remaining of the classes cost so if we calculate it as follow:
0.25 * $14,000 = $3,500
=================================================================
Another method to understand:
if the scolarship pays 75% of her classes that will be
0.75* $14,000 = $10,500
now she has to pay the remaining of the total cost and that will be
$14,000 - $10,500 = $3,500.
Multiply first then you would wanna add but you can't until you subtract 5-3 then add I got 12
