First, we need to calculate how much Anne earns per month:
$15,000 / 12 months = $1,250 per month
Next, we calculate how much she should budget for housing and food each month:
Housing: 22% of $1,250 = 0.22 * $1,250 = $275
Food: 24% of $1,250 = 0.24 * $1,250 = $300
Therefore, Anne must budget $275 for housing and $300 for food each month.
Anne budgets 22% of her income for housing and 24% of her income
for food. If she earns $15,000 per year, how much must she budget
monthly for housing and food?
