A data-entry clerk spends $86 per week for food. This is 20% of his weekly income. What is the weekly income? Show work please :

$430

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weekly income be x

Money spent on food= $86

% of weekly income spent on food = 20

20% of weekly income in terms = 20/100 * x = x/5

This, income is equal to $86 as given

thus,

x/5 = 86

x = 86*5 = 430

Thus, weekly income is $430.

distance covered by pamela in 9 l of fuel = 99km

let us apply unitary method here.

distance covered by pamela in 1 l of fuel =99/9 =11 km

now let us find distance covered by pamela if she has 12 l of fuel.

distance covered in 12 l = distance covered in 1 l of fuel * 12

we know that distance covered by here in 1 l is 11 km.

so distance covered in 12 l of fuel = 11*12 = 132 km.
