A group of friends were working on a student film. They spent all their budget on costumes and props. They spent $330 on
costumes, and 34% of the total budget on props. What was the total budget for their student film?



Answer :

Answer:

The total budget for their student film was $500.

Step-by-step explanation:

They spent $330 on costumes and 34% of the total budget on props. Let’s call the total budget B. The amount spent on props is 0.34B. The total budget equation is 330+0.34B=B. Subtract 0.34B from both sides: 330=0.66. Divide both sides by 0.66 to find B:B =500.

Answer:

Total budget = $500

Step-by-step explanation:

34% of the total budget spent on props so 66% of the budget was spent on the costumes

We can set up a ratio for this:

330/x = 66/100

solve for x

330 x 100 / 66 = x

x = 500

This means that the total budget was $500.
