Rent = $5400 
Income = $15000

Percentage of income spent on rent = 5400/15000 x 100 = 36%

Answer: He spent 36% on rent.
------------------------------------------------

Answer:

36%

Step-by-step explanation:

The rent paid is a percentage of the net income earned by the student. Logically, if the rate for the rent was at $450 per month for 12 months, this makes $5400 a year in rent.

If the annual income was $15000, the percent of his income is spent on rent

= ($5400/$15000) × 100%

= 36%

It means he spent 36% of his income on rent.
