Solution :
Given that, Celia earned $5.00.
She saved $1.00 and spent the rest.
To find the ratio of the amount saved to the amount spent , we must first calculate the amount spent.
To calculate the amount spent, subtract the amount saved from the total money earned.
Amount spent by Celia = amount earned - amount saved [tex] = 5-1 = 4 [/tex]
[tex] ratio= \frac{amount\:saved}{ amount\:spent} =\frac{1}{4} \\
\\
ratio= 1:4 [/tex]
Hence, 1:4 is the ratio of the amount saved to the amount spent.
