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
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
