Answer 1

To get the yearly amount multiply by 12 the monthly amount:

Mortgage:

`1,522.45*12=18,269.40`

Cable television:

`75.40*12=904.80`

Electricity:

`120.34*12=1,444.08`

Gas:

`60.52*12=726.24`

Telephone:

`68.95*12=827.40`

Cars:

`650.39*12=7,804.68`

Food:

`200.85*12=2,410.20`

Clothing:

`102.09*12=1,225.08`

Total yearly expenditures:

`18,269.40+904.80+1,444.08+726.24+827.40+7,804.68+2,410.20+1,225.08=33,611.88`

1. If they save $45.50 a month, multiply that amount by 12 to find how much they have saved by the end of the year:

`45.50*12=546.00`

They will save $546.00 by the end of the year.

2. Given data: Pays $75.40 for Cable bill. Basic service is half of what is currently paying.

Find the half of 75.40 to know the cost of basic service:

`(75.40)/(2)=37.70`

He would pay $37.70 for basic service

3. As the monthly basic service cost $37.70, multiply it by 12 to get the yearly bill:

`37.70*12=452.4`

The yearly bill for basic service would be $452.40
