Answer 2

well since this is a percent problem you would take the total and pt the amount you trying to find over the total
so you you spent a total of $49
shoelaces were $ 4
so you would put the 4/49 to find the percent the shoe laces cost out of the total

Answer 3

and divide

Answer 4

45+4= 100/49=2.04*4=8.16 which is equal to 8.2
