C. $230
D. $200

Answer 1

Answer:

A. $260

Step-by-step explanation:

bob = $250

diana = 4/5 of bob

diana = 4/5 x $250

diana = $200 = 100%

30 % inc means she added 30% on top of what she had already which was 100%

30% + 100& =  130%

if 100 % = %200

130% = 130% x $200

                 100%

= $260
