Question

Steve set up a business making friendship bracelets. He earned $70 in January. He is projected to earn 120% more in February. How much is Steve projected to make in February?

Answer 1

Solve the question step by step to get your answer:

120% of 70
First find the answer to this:
70/x=100/120
(70/x)*x=(100/120)*x
70=0.833333333333*x
(0.833333333333) to get x
70/0.833333333333=x
84=x
x=84
$70+ $84 = 154$

In conclusion the best answer for this question is......

"154$." Steve would have a 120% increase of what he usually makes and if 120% of 70 is 84 then add 70 to 84 to get 154 which is your answer.
