French=   .11 * 5000  =   $  550

History  = .21 * 5000 =     $1050

Reference   =  .15 * 5000 =  $750

Science = .15 * 5000 =  $750

Bio =  .11 * 5000 = $550

Geo  = .09 * 5000 = $450

Fic =  .18 * 5000 =

 

 

Add the numbers in  the right hand  column as  a  check

 

550 + 1050 + 750 + 750 + 550 + 450 + 900 =    $5000
