A group of friends were working on a student film that had a budget of $1500. They used $1260 of their budget on props. What percentage of their total budget did they spend on props?
To find the percentage of their total budget spent on props, you can use the following formula:
Percentage spent = (Amount spent on props / Total budget) x 100
Plug in the values:
Percentage spent = ($1260 / $1500) x 100
Percentage spent = 0.84 x 100
Percentage spent = 84%
Therefore, the group of friends spent 84% of their total budget on props.
