Problema Solution
If 3/8 of the money in Rebecca’s savings account is enough to cover half the cost of a new car, how much of the money in her savings account will she need to cover the entire cost?
Answer provided by our tutors
We can write:
(3/8)*T=(1/2)car
(6/8)*T=1 Car
Or:
(3/8)+(3/8)=6/8
Rebecca will need to use 6/8 of what she has in her savings account.
