Answer:

The correct option is (d)

Step-by-step explanation:

Total income is $750.

Expenses for the month = 20 + 75 + 85 + 260

= $440

Savings = $250

Total expenses and savings are $690 (440 + 250)

One is left with $60 (750 - 690) after accounting for expenses and savings. So, from the income, only $60 can be spent on food and not more than that.
