Answer 6

rent is 200 a month
and she gets 740 a month
so what percentage of of her income does she spend on rent
it should be a low percentage because she still has 540 free to spend on whenever else
which is clearly bigger than 200

so when you see percentage think that you need to put a fraction together of the info given


if i said what percentage of her monthly income is not her rent
I would say change/original * 100%


so see if you can figure from that what her percentage on rent per month is?
