Answer:

Use the percentages to help you.

Ask yourself, what is 25% of $6,500.00?

Turn your percent into a decimal which is 0.25

then multiply $6,500 by 0.25

you should get 1625.

Find the amount of money spent on the food and find the difference of the two.
C. $390.00

Explanation:

Housing: 6,500/.25= $1,625
Food: 6,500/.19= $1,235

Subtraction:
$1,625 - $1,235= $390

The family spends $390.00 more dollars in housing than food.
