You have a group of friends that split some money from a party. you knew going in that you would get 30% of the total. after the party you got $48. how much did you and your group of friends make at the party? explai

$ 160

Step-by-step explanation:

ur getting 30% of the total moneyand ur getting $ 48

so 30% OF the total money IS 48

let x be the total moneyand turn ur percent to a decimal.

" of " means multiply and " is " means equals

0.30x = 48

x = 48 / 0.30

x = 160 <=== total money

check it...

30% of 160 = 48

0.30(160) = 48

48 = 48 (correct)...it checks out

step-by-step explanation:

ok one would be money, and the other would be refreshments or something similar. if each bag of popcorn is 5.00 and each drink is half of that that means drinks are 2.50 the proper way to do that would to look and see how much of each you can buy without exceeding a limit of 30.00
