Mr. Powell brought home $324.16 in net pay last week. His gross pay was $594.00. Then

$594 -- 100%,

$324.16 -- x%,

or mathematically it sounds as proportion:

[tex]\dfrac{\$594}{\$324.16}=\dfrac{100\%}{x\%}.[/tex]

Find x:

[tex]x\%=\dfrac{\$324.16\cdot 100\%}{\$594}\approx 55\%[/tex]

Answer: correct choice is B
