Question

A particular online payment service charges a 3% fee on each transaction plus $0.25.

Someone transferred some money to you and the service fee was $1.75.

Write and solve an equation to calculate how much the original amount sent to you was. You only need to provide an answer to how much money was sent to you.

Answer 1

Answer:

50dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

3%x+0.25=1.75

3%x=1.75-0.25

3x/100=1.5

x=1.5*100/3

x=150/3

x=50
