  1. Explanation: If his salary is $120,000 and 1/4 is used on food he has a remaining of $80,000. He uses 1/2 on clothing so he has a remainder of $40,000 so now we know that he used $40,000 on clothing
    Answer: $40,000

  2. Answer:
    salary=120000
    1/4×120000=30000= money spent
    remainder=120000- 30000
    = 90000
    money spent on clothing =1/2×90000
    =45000
