Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that last month $30 was spent on clothing and that this month, 160% of what was spent last month.

The equation to to model this situation will be:

= 160% × $30

= 160/100 × $30

= 1.6 × $30

= $48

That means $48 will be spent this month.
