Do the exponents first. 10 to the -4 is 1/10000 or 0.0001 and 10^ -5 is 0.00001. You end up with (1.7*0.0001)(5*0.00001) which is 0.00017*0.00005 which is 0.0000000085 or 0.085*10^-8
The monthly expenses are found below:
Mortgage - $752 Tim's Chevron - $23Johnny's Allowance - $8Electric - $176Jenny-babysitting - $12Movie - $14Dry Cleaning - $41Tithe - $85,Credit Card - $150Food - $101Phone - $45Water - $16 Car - $272
Adding all the expenses, will give us a total of $1695.
To get the percent which is allocated for movie and the baby sitting:
Add the amount for the two then divide that to the total then multiply it by 100%
= 12 + 14 / 1695 x 100%
= 26 / 1695 x 100%
= 0.015339233 x 100%
=1.5%
The answer is 1.5%
