Question

Hi please help me as soon as possible:

Answer 1

Answer:

Percentage = 14.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Cost of plane ticket = £588

Airport tax = $130

£1 = $1.34

To find the percentage of the total cost spent on airport tax;

First of all, we would convert the ticket cost in pounds (£) to dollars ($).

Cost of plane ticket = £588 to $ = 588 * 1.34 = $787. 92

Total cost = Cost of plane ticket + Airport tax

Total cost = 787. 92 + 130

Total cost = $917.92

$Percentage \; cost = \frac {130}{917.92} * 100$

$Percentage = 0.1416 * 100$

Percentage cost = 14.16 to 1 d.p = 14.2%

Therefore, the percentage of the total cost spent on airport tax by Rimo is 14.2 percent.
