Answer:
$602.50
Step-by-step explanation:
The monthly rent is $1,050.00.
If Yadira pays 3/5 ths of the rent, then her friend will pay 2/5 ths of the rent:
[tex]\implies \sf \dfrac{2}{5}\;of\;1050=\dfrac{2}{5} \times 1050=420[/tex]
Therefore, Yadira's friend pays $420 for rent.
If the monthly utilities average is $365, Yadira's friend's portion of the utilities will be half of the total:
[tex]\implies \sf \dfrac{1}{2}\;of\;365=\dfrac{1}{2} \times 365=182.5[/tex]
Therefore, Yadira's friend pays $182.50 for utilities.
So the total amount Yadira's friend will pay each month is:
[tex]\implies \sf Rent + Utilities=420+182.50=602.50[/tex]
