Johanna budgets $1,128 each month for fixed expenses. What percent of her netmonthly income is that if she nets $3,153 semimonthly? Make answer a percentthen round to a whole percentage. Your Answer:

Respuesta :

Given:

The amount for fixed expenses = $1,128.

Semimonthly income = $3,153

We know that a semimonthly payroll is paid twice a month.

[tex]\text{Monthly income =2}\times$3,153$=6306[/tex]

The percent of the monthly income is fixed expenses.

Let x be the required percentage.

[tex]x\text{ \% 6306=1128}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{1128}{6306}\times100[/tex]

[tex]x=17.88[/tex]

Round off.

[tex]x=18\text{ \%}[/tex]

Hence the required percentage is 18.
