SOLUTION :
Given
Total amount = $4500
Amount saved = 1/3 of $4500
= (1/3)×4500
=4500/3
=$1500
Remaining amount = $4500 - $1500 = $3000
Given that 50% of the remaining amount was spent on food
⇒50% of $ 3000
⇒(50/100)×3000
⇒(1/2)×3000
⇒3000/2
⇒ $1500
Given that 20% of $3000
⇒(20/100)×3000
⇒(1/5)×3000
⇒3000/5
⇒$600
Therefore the amount spent on food is $1500 and on house rent is $600.
