Answer:

The amount of money that is left after all these payments each month is $1397

Step-by-step explanation:

Parameters:

Total Salary = $1900

Insurance = $224

Electricity bill = $170

Phone/internet/cable bills = $109

Total cost = $224 + $170 + $109 = $503

The amount of money that is left after all these payments each month is the difference between the total salary and the total cost.

This is:

$1900 - $503 = $1397
