Answer 1

Answer:

Adding all the percentages we have 82(30+30+10+12)

So, for miscellaneous, the man spends 100-82 ie 18%.

Also, it is given that the amount spend on miscellaneous items is 1350.

18% of 'x'=1350 is the required equation. From that we get x=7500.

Then, all you have to do is find amount spent on each item like on house it would be 30% of 7500 ie 30/100 times 7500 ie 2250 and so on.
