Question

The Cooper family consists of two adults and one child. Their current monthly income is $4,500. How much does the Cooper family spend on food each month?

Answer 1

`Amount = \$630`

Explanation:

See attachment for budget

Given

`Monthly\ Income = \$4500`

Required

Determine the amount spent on food

To solve this, we refer to the attachment to get the budget for food

From the attachment, we have:

`\%Food = 14\%`

Amount spent of food is then calculated as:

`Amount = \%Food * Monthly\ Income`

`Amount = 14\% * \$4500`

`Amount = \$630`

Hence, they spend $630 on food each month
