Answer:

Not sure which "process" it is. But discount amount is $3 (new price would be 57)

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation would start with 5% x 60
5% would be equivalent to the fraction 5/100
Take 5/100 and multiply 60
(60 x 5)/100 = 3 <--<em> discount amount</em>
Take $3 off $60 and the new price is $57

Answer:

$\dfrac{2}{3}x = \$ 2500$

$3750

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Jay saves $\frac{2}{3}^{rd}$ of the savings account for his college education.

Money set aside for the college education = $2500

To find:

$\dfrac{2}{3}x = \$ 2500$

Now, let us solve the above equation:

$\Rightarrow 2x =3\times 2500\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{7500}{2}\\\Rightarrow x = \bold{\$ 3750}$

Total money saved in the savings account is $3750.

Out of the total money $2500 is saved for college education.
