it would be C) 18% because the expense for food is 970 and the take-home pay is 5388. 970 divided by 5388 is 0.1800297 rounding to 0.18 making it 18%

To find the percentage of take-home pay is spent on food

We have to divide the amount spent on food by total take-home pay

Now as we can see the take-home pay = $5388

And the amount spent on food = $970

So lets divide

we get

970/5388 *100%

= 0.180029 * 100%

= 18.0029 %

≈18%

Option C is the correct answer.
