Question

When Tim got his paycheck, he spent 10% of it on rent, 15% of it on food, and 30% on other things. If he spent a total of 2,200 dollars on all of those things, what was the amount on his paycheck?

Answer 1

Answer:

$4,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount on his paycheck be 'x'

Total % of these things = 55%

Then, we understood that,

55% of 'x' = $2,200

55x/100 = $2,200

55x = $(2,200 × 100)

x = $(2,20,000/55)

x = $4000 Ans.

Hope it helps you... :)
