Answer:

the McGee family spent $722.22 on groceries last month.

Explanation:

To find the amount of money the McGee family spent on groceries, you can use the proportion of the central angle of the sector representing groceries to the total central angle of the circle (which is 360°) and set it equal to the proportion of the amount spent on groceries to the total expenses (which is $5,000).
