Question 844261

Hi,
Think of it this way:
If You had $36 and You spent <sup>1</sup>&frasl;<sub>4</sub> going to a movie,
how much did it cost You to go to the movie.
As $9 + $9 + $9 + $9 = $36,    <sup>1</sup>&frasl;<sub>4</sub> for a movie would be *[tex \large\ \ $36/4 = $9]
annual income $36,000,     <sup>1</sup>&frasl;<sub>5</sub> for housing: *[tex \large\ \ $36,000/5 = $7200] 
As to Your answer 35,470, might always recommend looking at Your answer
once You have it and asking Yourself, does that answer make CENTS.
If $35,470 of the $36,000 was spent on housing, there would almost nothing
left for all the other things.
Wish You the Best in your Studies.
