much did Carmela save last week?

A. $1.70
B. $2.00
C. 3.33
4. $20.00

Answer 1

Answer:

$2

Step-by-step explanation:

So, 8% is the same as 8/100 or .08. I'll be using .08 to make things more simple. Now, if she earned $25 last week and she saves 8% of it then, the equation to find how much she saved would be 25 times .08. Simply plug that into a calculator to get the answer $2.

Answer 2

the answer is B. $2.00
