After the game the coach bought 9 chicken meals for 5 dollars each and 15 burger meals for 6 dollars each. what percent of the total amount the coach spent was used for the chicken meals?

1 chicken meal = $5
9 chicken meals = 9($5)= $45
-
1 burger meal = $6
15 burger meals = 15($6) = $90
-
Total amount = $90+$45 = $135
-
Percent spent on chicken meals = [$40 ÷ $135] x 100
                                                       = 0.296 x 100
                                                        = 29.6% or approximately 30%
