John spent 40% of his earnings last month on rent and 30% less than what he spent on rent to purchase a new dishwasher. What percent of last month's earnings did John have left over?
Let John's salary be x
Rent = 40% of x = 40 ÷ 100 x = 0.4x
Dishwasher = 70% of rent (i.e. 30% less than) = 70 ÷ 100 (0.4x) = 0.7 x 0.4x = 0.28x

Let John's salary be x
Rent = 40% of x = 40 ÷ 100 x = 0.4x
Dishwasher = 70% of rent (i.e. 30% less than) = 70 ÷ 100 (0.4x) = 0.7 x 0.4x = 0.28x
Total money spent = 0.4x + 0.28x = 0.68x
So John spent 0.68x100% of his salary = 68%
What is remaining = 100% - 68% = 32%
Answer: 32%

What Is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that you can buy, sell and exchange directly, without an intermediary like a bank. Bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, originally described the need for “an electronic payment system based on cryptographic proof instead of trust.” Each and every Bitcoin transaction that’s ever been made exists on a public ledger accessible to everyone, making transactions hard to reverse and difficult to fake. That’s by design: Core to their decentralized nature, Bitcoins aren’t backed by the government or any issuing institution, and there’s nothing to guarantee their value besides the proof baked in the heart of the system. “The reason why it’s worth money is simply because we, as people, decided it has value—same as gold,” says Anton Mozgovoy, co-founder & CEO of digital financial service company Holyheld.
