1,017.19

Explanation:

Find
(1)/(8) of 2,712.5 to find how much money Paulo spends on his car.

(1)/(8) = .125

Multiply 2,712.5 by .125

2,712.5 × .125 = 339.0625 ≈ 339.06

Now, find

2,712.5 × .25 = 678.125 ≈ 678.13

Answer:

$1017.19

Explanation:

First find the fraction of how much of Paulo's money is spent on his rent and car. Add 1/4 and 1/8, which is 3/8 because 1/4 = 2/8. Then multiply 3/8 by Paulo's monthly spending, which is $2712.50. Multiplying those numbers will get you $1017.1875. which you have to round up to $1017.19 because you can't spend three quarters of a cent.
