Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If a pie chart shows that 30% of a budget is allocated to education, and the total budget is $600,000, how much money is allocated to education?
  • Step 1: Understand that 30% means 30 out of every 100 parts.
  • Step 2: Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing 30 by 100. This gives you 0.30.
  • Step 3: Identify the total budget amount, which is $600,000.
  • Step 4: Multiply the total budget by the decimal you found in Step 2. So, calculate $600,000 * 0.30.
