A group of friends were working on a student film. They spent $270 on props which was 45% of their total budget. What was the total budget for their student film?

The total budget for their student film is $600

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the total budget of a group of students on a movie given the amount the spent on props.

Since we do not know this amount, we can call it x

Now, 45% of this x was the amount spent on props and it is equal to $270

Mathematically;

45/100 * x = 270

45x = 100 * 270

x = (100 * 270)/45

x = 600

a.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1 distribute 2 to every term in the parentheses

step 2 add 10 on both sides of the equal sign

-22

times both sides by 2, times () by 8, add alile terms, move terms, add alike and caculate divide both sides by 3
