Angela transfers 15% of each paycheck she received into her savings account. If she transferred $54 into her savings account last week, how much did she earn on that paycheck? Show your work using a model, proportion or equation

$360

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount that she earned on the paycheck be represented by x

Hence,

15% of x = $54

Therefore:

15/100 × x = $54

15x/100 = $54

Cross Multiply

15x = $54 × 100

15x = $5400

x = $5400/15

x = $360

Therefore, the amount that she earned on that paycheck = $360
