Let total amount spent =x

Dita spent 35 % of total amount.

35% of x = 0.35x

So amount spent by Dita = 0.35x

% of money spent by Benton = 20 % of x = 0.2x

We are given that Benton spent $12 more than Claire,

so making equation we have ,

Money spent by Dita = Money spent by Claire +12

0.35x =0.2x +12

0.35x -0.2x = 12

0.5x =12

x=80

So total amount spent was $80.

Money spent by Benton = 0.2x = 0.2 * 80= $16

So amount spent by Benton is $16.
