Then ask her for help with this problem. We showed her how to do a lot of these problems this evening.
To find out the percentage of money that Jackie used out of the $80 she found, we need to calculate the difference between the amount she kept and the total amount she found.
Amount Jackie used = Total amount found - Amount kept
Amount Jackie used = $80 - $75
Amount Jackie used = $5
To calculate the percentage, we'll use the following formula:
Percentage = (Amount used / Total amount) * 100
Percentage = ($5 / $80) * 100
Percentage = 0.0625 * 100
Percentage = 6.25%
Therefore, Jackie used 6.25% of the money she found.
