Answer 1

Given:

• Mr. Krabs goes to "Cheapstuff "3/8 of the time.

In percentage,

$\frac{3}{8}\times100=37.5$

• He goes to "Gimme Money!" 60% of the time.

• He goes to "I Won't Pay icent! " the rest of the time.

That is,

$\begin{gathered} 37.5+60+x=100 \\ 97.5+x=100 \\ x=2.5 \end{gathered}$

a)

The precent of the time does her go to "I Won't may 1 cent is 2.5%.

b)

The simplest fraction form Part a is,

$\begin{gathered} \frac{2.5}{100}=\frac{25}{1000} \\ =\frac{1}{40} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the answer is,

$\frac{1}{40}$
