Answer:
$60
Step-by-step explanation:
The savings of Andries is $120 and his grandfather offered that he would give 50% of the amount he saved.
50% is actually just half of a given amount. So the short way to do this is just half the saving of Andries.
[tex]\dfrac{\$120}{2} = \$60[/tex]
You can also think of it this way:
[tex]50\%=\dfrac{50}{100}[/tex]
So we multiply that to the amount saved to solve for what is 50% of 120.
[tex]\$120\times\dfrac{50}{100} = \dfrac{\$6000}{100}=\$60.00[/tex]
