Question

5. Lauren is saving for gymnastics camp, Camp costs $225 to attend. She has 40 percent of the money saved. How much money has she saved?

Answer 1

To solve this problem you have to convert the percentage to a decimal which would
be .40.

40% =40/100=.40


After doing so all you need to do is divide the amount needed by the percentage which gives you the amount she has saved.

225/.40= $90

Lauren has $90 saved
