A student spend 37.5 of her money on food 28.75 on rent and 15.0 on book what percentage of her is left to spend on other things
if you add all of them up and then you'll get 71.25%. 100 - 71.25 is 28.75.
i believe your answer is 28.75
18.75
To find the percentage of money left to spend on other things, we can subtract the amounts spent from the total amount of money and then express that as a percentage.
Total amount of money = Money spent on food + Money spent on rent + Money spent on books
Total amount of money = 37.5 + 28.75 + 15.0 = 81.25
Amount of money left to spend on other things = Total amount of money - Money spent
Amount of money left to spend on other things = 81.25 - (37.5 + 28.75 + 15.0) = 81.25 - 81.25 = 0
Since there is no money left to spend on other things, the percentage of money left to spend on other things is 0%.
To calculate the percentage of money left to spend on other things, we need to find the total amount of money spent and then subtract it from the initial amount of money the student had. Here's the step-by-step solution:
1. Find the total amount of money the student spent:
Total amount spent = Money spent on food + Money spent on rent + Money spent on books
Total amount spent = 37.5 + 28.75 + 15.0 = 81.25
2. Subtract the total amount spent from the initial amount of money the student had:
Amount left to spend = Initial amount of money - Total amount spent
Since the initial amount of money is not given in the question, let's assume it is 100 (this is just an example; you can use any other value if given).
Amount left to spend = 100 - 81.25 = 18.75
3. Calculate the percentage of money left to spend on other things:
Percentage left to spend = (Amount left to spend / Initial amount of money) x 100
Percentage left to spend = (18.75 / 100) x 100 = 18.75%
Therefore, the student has 18.75% of her money left to spend on other things.
