First determine the budget for 2000. Multiply the costs of the crimes by the number of crimes and summing the total.

Murder = 6 x $3000 = $18000
Theft = 412 x $200 = $82400
Robbery = 72 x $600 = $43,200

$18,000 + $82,400 + $43,200 = $143,500

The second step is divide the budget used for thefts by the total budget.

82,400 / 143,600 = 0.5738 or rounded 57.4%

If you had difficulty with this problem, review the section on decimals, multiplication, and division in the teaching material.
