Question 996679: I need help on this problem Kevin earned $450 in June for mowing lawns he spent $30 at the movies and spent 60 on expensive the rest of the money he put into his savings account what percent of his earnings did he put into his savings account
Answer by addingup(3677) About Me  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1) Add the amounts of money he spent
2) Subtract total money spent from 450 and you have money saved
3) Divide money saved by 450. Since you want percent (per-cent, per one hundred) multiply the result times 100 and that will be you percent saved.
