If these questions are about graphs and charts, we don't have access to anything about family spending in Newton. What is the average family income?

What does your graph show as the answers to 2 and 3?

Obviously a family in Newton spends almost half (44%) of its income on housing. But question asks for the amount -- so you have to know the family's total income to find the dollar amount.
