The family budget is illustrated in the figure to the right What is the total takehome pay and what percent is allocated for transportationThe total take home p class=

Respuesta :

• Total take-home pay

As we have the quantity for each section, we can add all and get the total as follows:

[tex]390+300+90+70+90+90+170+150+150[/tex]

Simplifying:

[tex]=1500[/tex]

• Percentage allocated for transportation

To get the percent for transportation, we have to divide the quantity of transportation against the total and multiply it times 100%:

[tex]\frac{150}{1500}\times100\%=10\%[/tex]

Answer:

• The total take home pay is $1500

,

• The percent of the take-home pay allocated for transportation is 10%
