Finish problem 1.3 in Bits and Pieces I

Remember:

For part (D) you are finding the dollar amount.  As we did in class, finding a fraction of $300 first involves dividing to get the fractional part – then, if you have several of those pieces (like four fifths, for example) you can either add or multiply to get the correct amount.

For part (E) use any technique that you think would work to find the fraction – just be sure to show your work.
