Answer: $19.50
Step-by-step explanation:initial amount =$1200
Money spent on travel arrangements = initial amount - 1/5 of initial amount
=> 1200 - 1/5 x 1200
=>1200-240
=>$960
Hence new initial amount = $960
Money spent on hardware = new initial amount-2/3of new initial amount
=>960-2/3x960
=>960-640
$320
Hence new initial amount=$320
Final amount=$300.50
Hence amount spent on lunch=new initial amount-final amount
=>320-300.50
$19.50
This is the ans
