Answer 1

Answer:

$Amount = \ 630$

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for budget

Given

$Monthly\ Income = \ 4500$

Required

Determine the amount spent on food

To solve this, we refer to the attachment to get the budget for food

From the attachment, we have:

$\%Food = 14\%$

Amount spent of food is then calculated as:

$Amount = 14\% * \ 4500$

$Amount = \ 630$

Hence, they spend $630 on food each month
