Question

Nina heard that as a general rule, she should spend no more than one week's pay on rent. If Nina's pay is $27,600 per year, what is the maximum amount per month that she should spend on rent?

Its $530!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

`\$530.77`

Explanation:

we know that

`1\ year=52\ weeks`

step 1

Divide the total pay in a year by the total weeks in a year

so

`(\$27,600)/(52)= \$530.77` ----> one week's pay

therefore

The maximum amount per month that she should spend on rent is
`\$530.77`

Answer 2

52 weeks in a year

27600/52 = 530.769

so 1 weeks pay = 530.77

she shouldn't pay more than that on rent
