Anne, scott and beth won 65,000 in a lottery. the jackpot will be divided among them based on their money they put towards the tickets. thus, anne should get 35% of the jackpot and scott gets 1/4 of the winnings. how much money should beth get?

Beth gets 26000

Step-by-step explanation:

Anne gets 35%, so on a calculator type 35%65000, which is 22750 (for finding percentage, imagine you are typing in the calculator 35% of 65000. This works for finding the percentage of any amount.)

Scott gets 1/4, so type 1/4*65000, which is 16250. (1 divided by 4 is 0.25, aka 1 over 4 or one-quarter.)

Add the two and you get 39000

Subtract 39000 from the 65000 won and you get 26000.

Therefore, Beth should get 26000. Add the three to verify the total of 65000.
