Shawnda spent $259.20 on a scooter. This was 80% of her budget for a new scooter. How much was the total budget?

Respuesta :

x * 0,8 = 259,2 <=>

x = 258,2/0,8 <=>

x = 322,75

The total budget was 322,75$

The total budget was = $324

The percentage of budget spent = 80%

The cost of 80% of budget spent on scooter = $259.20

But the percentage of total budget = 100%

Therefore the cost of total budget =

[tex] \frac{100 \times 259.20}{80} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{25920}{80} [/tex]

= 324

Therefore the cost of the total budget = $324
