Tristin Becker · Answer 1

I am pretty sure the final answer would be 168.

If he used 84% it would be 1,050 multiplied by. 84 which is 882.

Then you would do 1,050-882 which is $168

Arely Dickerson · Answer 2

So 84%=1050

what is left is 100%-84%=16%

equal ratios

1050 to 84=x to 16

1050:84=x:16

fractionify

1050/84=x/16

multiply both sides

by 16

16800/84=x

simplify

200=x

answer is 200 is left
