Question

Colin spends 3/4 of his wages on rent and 1/8 on food. If he makes £464 per week, how much money does he have left?

Answer 1

Answer:

£58

Step-by-step explanation:

Money spent on rent=

$\frac{464 \times 3}{4} = 116 \times 3 =34 8$

Money spent on food=

$\frac{464 \times 1}{8} = 58 \times 1 = 58$

Total Money=£464

Money left=Total Money - Money spent

=£464-(£348+£58)

=£464-£406

=£58
