A group of friends were working on a student film that had a budget of $1500. They used $1260 of their budget on props. What percentage of their total budget did they spend on props?

Answer 1

To find the percentage of their total budget spent on props, you can use the following formula:

Percentage spent = (Amount spent on props / Total budget) x 100

Plug in the values:

Percentage spent = ($1260 / $1500) x 100
Percentage spent = 0.84 x 100
Percentage spent = 84%

Therefore, the group of friends spent 84% of their total budget on props.
