shinalcantara · Answer

if the total income is 61,700 and 48,000 is from his plumbing job,
then from the apartment he rented out would be:
61,700 - 48,000 = 13,700

since you wanted to find out the income monthly,
divide it by 12 since there are 12 months in a year..
13,700/12 = ?
how much would that be?

61700-48000=13700
13700/12=1141.6~ approximately
