If I buy a computer for $574 and it is 75% of my total savings, how much money do I have left?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

$765.33

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i should have less than 574

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ah i didn't get the grammar

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in that case 430.50

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Think: 574 is 3/4 of all that you had. Which means that what you have left is 1/3 of what you spent.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Divide all that you had into 4 equal parts. 3 of those parts went to buy the computer. You have one part left. The part you have left is obviously 1/3 of what you spent on the computer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ah

OpenStudy (anonymous):
