the circle graph represents a family's monthly budget if the total monthly budget is 6,500, how much more does the family spend on housing than food
(Pie graph split into 4)
other with 42%
food with 19%
bills with 14%
Housing with 25%
Please help!
The answer is 390 or C.
Explanation: Multiply 6,500 by .25 to get the housing bill. (1,625) Then multiply 6,500 by .19 to get the food bill. (1,235) Then subtract both numbers. (1,625 - 1,235 = 390) and that is your answer. Have a great day, hope this helped you. 💖
How in the world did you get 65 or 65%???
thank you SMART BOI :D
For anyone stuck on this question you get the answer by doing $6,500 divided by .25 to get the housing amount and $6,500 by .19 for the food bill and you subtract those two pair of numbers you got to get your answer.

To find out how much more the family spends on housing than food, you'll first need to calculate the amount of money allocated to each category.
Step 1: Calculate the amount allocated for housing.
The Housing category accounts for 25% of the total monthly budget. To find out how much that is in dollars, multiply the total budget by the percentage:
Housing = 25% * $6,500
Step 2: Calculate the amount allocated for food.
The Food category accounts for 19% of the total monthly budget. Multiply the total budget by the percentage:
Food = 19% * $6,500
Step 3: Find the difference.
To determine how much more the family spends on housing than food, subtract the amount allocated for food from the amount allocated for housing:
Difference = Housing - Food
Now, let's calculate the amounts:
Housing = 0.25 * $6,500
= $1,625
Food = 0.19 * $6,500
= $1,235
Difference = $1,625 - $1,235
= $390
Therefore, the family spends $390 more on housing than on food each month.
