A payroll check is issued for $500.00. If 20% goes to bills, 30% of the remainder goes to pay entertainment expenses, and 10% of what is left is placed in a retirement account, then approximately how much is remaining?

anonymous · Answer

So, 20% of $500 can be written as 0.20 x 500

We are spending: 20% + 30% +10% = 60% of our money, and so have 100-60 = 40% left over.

40% of $500 = 0.40 x 500 = 200
$200
