Question

John receives a 36000 salary for working as an agent. If john spends 50% of his salary on expenses each year, then how much money does john have to spend on expenses? Round your answer to the nearest whole number if necessary

Answer 1

Answer:

John spends $18000 on expenses

Step-by-step explanation:

50% = $\frac{1}{2}$

50% means half of something

therefore,

$36000 × $\frac{1}{2}$ = $18000, or $36000 ÷ 2 = $18000
