Verified Answer :

The simplest way to find percent is to take the partial number, divide by the whole number, and multiply the answer by 100%.

\(\frac{10}{25}\) = 0.4

0.4 x 100% = 40%.

Answer:

You spent 40% of your budget on office supplies.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First take the total budget:

$25

2. Then take the money you spent on office supplies and divide it by the total budget to find the ratio you spent:

\(Ratio=\frac{10}{25}\)

\(Ratio=0.4\)

3. Finally multiply the ratio by a hundred to find the percentage of the budget you spent on office supplies:

\(Percentage=0.4*100\)

\(Percentage=40\)%

Therefore, you spent 40% of your budget on office supplies.
