Answers:
Rent = 750
Savings = 750
Groceries = 625 (you are correct)
Other = 375
========================================
Explanation:
Convert each percent to decimal form. You do this by moving the decimal point 2 spots to the left.
Rent has 30% turn into 0.30, which multiplies with 2500 to get 0.30*2500 = 750
For savings, the same multiplier is used because we also have 30% here as well. So the same amount is devoted to savings.
You have the correct answer for groceries. Multiply 0.25 with 2500 to get 625. Nice work on getting the correct answer here.
Finally, we have 15% devoted to other, so we multiply 0.15 by 2500 and we get 0.15*2500 = 375
As a check, we can add up the subtotals 750, 750, 625, 375 to get 750+750+625+375 = 2500 which helps us confirm our answers.
