Butterball · Answer 1

Answer: 210

Step-by-step explanation:

10% of 300 is 30

30x3=90

30%=90

90-300=210

Roman Newton · Answer 2

210 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

So you can solve this by making an equation of 300 times 30 is equal to 100 times x so 9000 is equal to 100x so x=90. So she can use 210 pounds.
