Gap-fill

Ask the student a question, and give any hints about how they should answer this part.

If $\var{name}$ 's weekly wage is $£\var{wage}$ , how much spending money does she have per week?

£Unnamed gap

Advice

First calculate the rent:

$€\var{wage} \times \frac{\var{rent}}{100} = €\var{wage1}$

So she has $\var{wage} - \var{wage1}=£\var{wage-wage1}$ left after rent

She saves $\var{save}$ % of this, which is:

$\var{wage-wage1} \times \frac{\var{save}}{100} = £\var{wage2}$

So spending money per week:

$£\var{wage} - £\var{wage1} - £\var{wage2} = £\var{ans}$

Rounding to two decimal places we get $£\var{dpformat(ans_dec,2)}$ .

Give a worked solution to the whole question.
