So... To find the total amount, add each number together. 795.00 + 37.75 + 45.25 + 54.00 +23.00 + 21.00= 976.00 a month What is the total amount of her monthly housing costs? = 976.00 a month Was Rebecca within the recommended guidelines of spending 35% or less of her monthly gross pay on housing expenses? = Yes What percentage do monthly expenses take out of her budget? Budget: $4,904 per month Spends: 976.00 per month 35% of 4,904 is $1716.4, which means, she stayed inside the 35%. My source: https://percent-calc.com/what-is-35-of-4904
