Janae makes $1700 a month she also gets $300 from a social security check. She needs to make sure she puts aside $100 money for gas each month. What percentage of her income is this?

Janae's total monthly income is $2000.

If I use a percent bar and split 2000 in 10 parts I get:

Each bar represents 10% of 2000. 

Since she puts aside $100. Take 200 and divide by 2 which means you also take 10% and divide by 2.

10% /2 = 5%
