Question

50%= Personal Shopping

32%= Groceries
18%= Utilities
Caleb reviewed his bills for the past two months and divided his expenses into the three categories in the pie chart. If Caleb's total expenses during the two months were $2,000, how much did he spend on utilities?

Answer 1

Since utilities is 18% of Caleb's total budget (of $2,000 ) the equation is as follows:

2000×.18 = 360

Caleb spends $360 every two months on utilities
