Question: Ben will receive a bonus of $1496. He chooses to allocate this amount as follows: 1/22 for the kitchen, 1/4 for holidays and 1/8 for Christmas gifts for his 3 children. How much money will he still have left after these expenses? Is final answer 867?
Answer: Ben's spending for the kitchen is $1496 x 1/22 = $<<1496*1/22=68>>68.
Ben's spending for holidays is $1496 x 1/4 = $<<1496*1/4=374>>374.
Ben's spending for children's gifts is $1496 x 1/8 = $<<1496*1/8=187>>187.
The total amount spent is $68 + $374 + $187 = $<<68+374+187=629>>629.
So, Ben still has $1496 - $629 = $<<1496-629=867>>867 left.
