Answer 2

Answer:

$1644.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been a typical household in the United States has an average after-tax income of $41,100. We are asked to find how much more is spent on insurance/pensions than on health care.

We have been given that 5% is spent on health care and 9% is spent on insurance/pensions. This means that 4% (9%-5%) is more on insurance/pensions than on health care.

Now, we need to find 4% of $41,100.

$\text{Amount more spent on insurance/pensions than on health care}=\frac{4}{100}\times \ 41,100$

$\text{Amount more spent on insurance/pensions than on health care}=4\times \ 411$

$\text{Amount more spent on insurance/pensions than on health care}=\ 1644$

Therefore, $1644 is more spent on insurance/pensions than on health care.
