Answer 2

Budget of a film = 1200

Money they spend on equipment :-

= 62% of total expense

= 62% of 1200

`= (62)/(100) * 1200`

`= (62 * 1200)/(100)`

`= (74400)/(100)`

`\color{purple}= 744`

Which means , the group of friends spent 744 on equipment .

Then , money they spent on costume :-

= 100 - 62 % of 1200

= 38% of 1200

`= (38)/(100) * 1200`

`= (38 * 1200)/(100)`

`= (45600)/(100)`

`\color{orange} = 456`

Which means the group of friends spent 456 on costumes .

Therefore , the group of friends spent 456 on costumes .
