Part A) She has saved a total of 9$ on this purchase.

.06=6% .06*150=9 so 9 dollars off.

Part B) Lets assume that she had no money to start off with this would mean that 94% of the cost of this bike would still have to be saved up.

If 150=100% 6%=9 150-9= 141=94%

Answer:

PART A= $ 9

PART B= 94%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of cost Nina intends to buy:

= $150

PART A:

She saved 6% of the total cost.

That is, 6% of $150

= 6/100 * $150

= $90 / 10

= $9

It means Nina has been able to save $9 ( 6% of $150)

PART B:

What percent of the total cost of the bicycle does Nina still have to save?

Nina still have to save $150 - $9 = $141

To find the percentage of the total cost that Nina still need to save, we'll consider finding the percentage of $141 to $150.

We do that this way:

$141 / $150 * 100

= $.94 * 100

= 94%
