given:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \"P=150000.00\"
\n" ); document.write( "distributed \"27\"% to his three children,
\n" ); document.write( " \"for_children=150000%2827%2F100%29=1500%2A27=40500\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a. How much did each of children get?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if \"27\"% distributed to his three children, we have\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"for_children=150000%2827%2F100%29=1500%2A27=40500\" ; so, each of children will get \"40500%2F3=13500\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "b. How much went to his savings? What percent of the total went to his savings?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"P=150000.00-40500=109500\"
\n" ); document.write( " he will use \"P=50000\", so deduct it too\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"109500-50000=59500\"
\n" ); document.write( "to his savings went \"59500\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a percent of the total went to his savings is :\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " we can calculate it this way:
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2F100\" and \"59500=150000%28x%2F100%29\"\"59500=1500x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"59500%2F1500=x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=39.67\"%\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "c. What percent went to his new car?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "find \"x%2F100\" of \"150000\" that is equal to \"50000\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"50000=150000%28x%2F100%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"50000=1500x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"50000%2F1500=x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=33.33\"%
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
