To estimate your monthly expenses, you need to add up your rent, phone charges, and groceries.

  1. Rent: $1,258
  2. Phone charges: $46.88
  3. Groceries: $115/week × 4 weeks = $460

Now, let's add them together:

  • Rent: $1,258
  • Phone charges: $46.88
  • Groceries: $460

Total expenses = $1,258 + $46.88 + $460 = $1,764.88

Rounding that to the nearest dollar gives you approximately $1,765.

So, the best estimate of your monthly expenses is $1,765.00.
