Alex has 70% of her weekly paycheck automatically deposited into a savings account. this week $35. Alex wants to know the total amount of her paycheck this week.

Answer: The total amount of her paycheck this week is $50

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the full question is:

Alex is 70% of her weekly paycheck automatically deposited into a savings account. This week $35 is deposited. Alex wants to know the total amount of your paycheck this week.

So, to answer this question we have to write an equation and solve for x (total amount of the paycheck).

Since 70% of her weekly paycheck is automatically deposited into a savings account. and this week $35 is deposited, we have to multiply the total amount of the paycheck (x) by the percentage deposited in decimal form (70/100), that expression must be equal to the amount deposited (35)

x (70/100) = 35

Solving for x:

x (0.7) = 35

x = 35/0.7

x = $50
