Answer:

d. 25%.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Tax revenue, T = $320 billion

Education budget, Eb = $80 billion

To find the percentage of the tax revenue spent on education, we would use the formula;

[tex] Percentage = \frac {E_{b}}{T} * 100 [/tex]

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex] Percentage = \frac {8,000,000,000}{32,000,000,000} * 100 [/tex]

[tex] Percentage = \frac {1}{4} * 100 [/tex]

Percentage = 25%
