Answer:

The amount of money spent by Steve in August is 135% of the amount spent in other months

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of each book bought be x

Therefore amount spent on books by Steve in every other month = 4x

In August price of books is 0.9x and Steve bought 6 books.

Therefore amount spent by Steve in August = 5.4x

Therefore difference between amount spent by Steve in August & every other month = 5.4x - 4x = 1.4x

Therefore percentage increase of amount spent in August

(1.4x ÷ 4x) × 100 = 35%
