Fred has $125. He owes his mom $12 and his brother $9. what percentage of his money is owed

16.8%

Convert fraction (ratio) 21 / 125 16.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Your answer is 16.8%.

To walk it through, we’ll need to find out how much money Fred owes in total by adding the $12 he owes to his mom and the $9 he owes to his brother.

12 + 9 = 21

We can write our current numbers as a fraction representing the amount of money he owes / the amount of money he has in total.

21/125

From there, we’ll divide to find the decimal.

21/125 = .0168

And lastly, we’ll convert our decimal to a percentage!

16.8%

Therefore, Fred owes 16.8% of his money.

Hope this helps!

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≤ x ≤ 40

step-by-step explanation:

20 ≤ x + 15 ≤ 55
