Answer:
$288.5948 or $288.60
Step-by-step explanation:
In the method I was taught, you use the part = percent x whole. So let us first substitute the equation with values to solve it.
Part = x (unknown)
% = 52% (because 100-48=52%)
Whole = 554.99
Once we substitute, we can now solve. Make sure to change the percent to a decimal, or it won't work.
p = 0.52 x 554.99
p = $288.5948 cost
I hope this helped! :D
