The Johnsons ordered new carpet for their family room. That paid 33% of the total cost when they ordered it, and will pay the remaining amount when the carpet is delivered. If they paid $192.72 when they ordered the carpet, how much will they pay when it is delivered?

.33x = 192.72
x = 192.72/.33 = 584.00

so 67% of 584 = 391.28
