Abdel just got a job babysitting his neighbors 3 afternoons a week. He wants to save 60% of his earnings each week. If he will make $80 a week, how much will he be saving each week?
A. $48
B. $13.33
C. $60
D. $36
To find out how much Abdel will be saving each week, we need to multiply his weekly earnings by the percentage he wants to save.
60% of $80 = 0.60 * $80 = $<<0.60*80=48>>48
Therefore, Abdel will be saving $48 each week.
Option A is the correct answer.
To find out how much Abdel will be saving each week, we need to calculate 60% of his earnings.
Step 1: Calculate 60% of $80.
60% of $80 = (60/100) * $80 = $48.
Therefore, Abdel will be saving $48 each week.
So the answer is A. $48.
To find out how much Abdel will be saving each week, we need to calculate 60% of his earnings.
To do this, we multiply his earnings by 0.60 (which represents 60% as a decimal).
So, 0.60 * $80 = $<<0.60*80=48>>48.
Therefore, Abdel will be saving $48 each week.
The correct answer is A. $48.
