Answer:

$63.53

Step-by-step explanation:

First, by looking at the problem, we will have to find the amount of Thomas's paycheck that he used for his friend's Birthday Gift.

35 × 8.25 = 288.75 $

Now we know that Thomas got 288.75 for his paycheck.

The problem says he spent 22% on that, we need to find 22% of 288.75

How we can do this is by first converting the percent into a decimal: 0.22, then multiplying it by the whole.

0.22 × 288.75 = 63.525

So now we know that Thomas spent 63.525 on his Freind.

If we round that number, it will be 63.53...

Therefore, $63.53 is the answer.
