Answer:

$600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "x" represent their total budget for the film.

Amount spent on costumes = $330

Percent spent on costumes = 55%

Therefore:

55% of x = $330

55/100 × x = 330

55x/100 = 330

Cross multiply

55x = 100 × 330

55x = 33,000

Divide both sides by 55

x = 33,000/55

x = 600

Total budget = x = $600
