Amy plans to spend 1/4 of his next month's income on rent, 1/12 on transportation, 1/6 on food, $590 on other
expenses, and save $925. How much does he plan to
spend on food?

9514 1404 393

  $505

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the listed expenses comprise all of Amy's income (x), we have ...

  (1/4)x +(1/12)x +(1/6)x + 590 +925 = x

  1515 = 1/2x . . . . . . subtract 1/2x

We note that 1/6x is for food. That amount is 1/3 of 1/2x, so the amount spent on food is ...

  (1/6)x = (1/3)(1/2x) = (1/3)(1515) = 505

Amy plans to spend $505 on food.

the answer is $505

hope this is what you were asking for!

step-by-step explanation:

if gloria has "carry over" minutes, (that is, any minutes paid for but not used in a month can be applied to her payment for minutes in the next month,) her total usage for the three months is: total minutes = 320 + 243 + 489 = 1052 minutes number of 200 minute blocks = 1052/200 = 5 r52 (that is 5 with a remainder of 52) rounding up the number of 200 minute blocks gives her usage for the three months as 6 blocks. the cost for six blocks is 6 x $25 = $150 she also has 200 - 52 or 148 carry over minutes if gloria pays each month and unused minutes are lost, applying the rounding up procedure to each month gives: first month usage of 320 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 second month usage of 243 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 third month usage of 489 minutes rounds up to 3 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 3 x $25 = $75 total payments for the three months are $50 + $50 + $75 = $175 get the plan with carry over minutes!
