If a 25% deposit that has been paid toward the purchase ofa bookshelf is $120, how much more remains to be paid?

Respuesta :

if 25% = 120
if 25 is multiplied by 4 to become 100(%) if we multiply 120 with 4, the answer should be the original cost.
480 is the original cost but since 120 is already paid, the final answer should be 360.

25% = $120


Find 1%

1% = 120 ÷ 25 = $4.80


Find 100% (original price):

100% = 4.8 x 100 = $480


Remaining price to pay:

$480 - $120 = $360


Answer: $360
