Jonah is saving up to purchase a small

flat screen television for his bedroom. he

has saved $80, which is 64% of the total

cost of the television. how much does the

television cost?

  $125

Step-by-step explanation:

You can write an equation from the problem statement:

  $80 = 0.64 × (total cost)

This is solved by dividing by 0.64.

  $80/0.64 = $125 = (total cost)

Of course, you know that ...

  64% = 64/100 = 0.64

Both fractions are read as "sixty-four hundredths."
