Bethany's mother was upset because Bethany's text messages from the previous month were 218% of the amount allowed at no extra cost under her phone plan. Her mother had to pay for each text message over the allowance. Bethany had 5,450 text messages last month. How many text messages is she allowed under the phone plan at no extra cost?

Respuesta :

so 5450=218%
find 100%
5450=218
ratio is
5450:218=x:100
fractionify
5450/218=x/100
multiply both sides by 100
545000/218=x
simplify
2500=x

answe ris allowerd 2500 text message
