Q
Q: If a person saves 30% of his salary and his savings amount to $600, what is his total salary?
Solution:
Let the salary be x. 30% of x = 600; 0.3x = 600; x = 600 / 0.3 = 2000.
Steps: 8
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that the person saves 30% of his salary.
Step 2: Let the total salary be represented by the variable x.
Step 3: Write the equation for the savings: 30% of x equals $600.
Step 4: Convert 30% to a decimal: 30% = 0.3.
Step 5: Rewrite the equation: 0.3x = 600.
Step 6: To find x, divide both sides of the equation by 0.3: x = 600 / 0.3.
Step 7: Calculate the division: 600 divided by 0.3 equals 2000.
Step 8: Conclude that the total salary is $2000.
