Answer:

£150 saved; £240 spent.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of savings to spending is 5:8, we find the fractions representing the amount saved and the amount spent by adding up 5 and 8 and then forming fractions:

savings:  5/13

spending:  8/13

(5/13) of £390 is £150; this is the amount saved.

(8/13) of £390 is £240; this is the amount spent.
