Respuesta :

We know that

• Caesar earned $23 an hour.

,

• He had saved $3,360.

,

• He worked 28 hours each week.

,

• We know that a year has 52 weeks.

Based on the given information, we express the following equation:

[tex]23\cdot28\cdot52-x=3,360[/tex]

Where x represents all his expenses throughout the year.

[tex]\begin{gathered} 33,488-x=3,360 \\ 33,488-3,360=x \\ x=30,128 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Caesar spent $30,128 the whole year, let's divide it by 12 to find his monthly expenses.

[tex]\frac{30,128}{12}\approx2,511[/tex]

Hence, Caesar's average monthly expenses were $2,511.
