Introduction: I have chosen India to make a budget for. India is a developing country in Asia.
A family I have chosen is the Rani family from Family of Rani. They are Rich, Their
monthly Budget is 6,606$. The amount of money that I have is 15000 Rupees (Gdp per
Capita,Money Converting). My Aim is to create a Budget for a Average family in India to tell
how should they spend their money per month
Paragraph 1: Creating the Budget
My next step was to research the approximate percentages of each budget item using the pie
chart from (Numbeo). I compared this to the families on (Gapminder).
I rounded these percentages to estimate the costs for each budget item so that it is easier to do
the calculations
Table 1 shows the budget for a typical family India(to the left), Figure 1 shows the pie chart.
In order to calculate the budget the budget for Markets, I did this
1. We assume that the number 15000 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 15000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 15000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 41.3% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=41.3%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 15000=100%
2) x=41.3%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units,
so we can do something like that:
15000/x=100%/41.3%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking
for.
7. Solution for what is 41.3% of 15000
15000/x=100/41.3
(15000/x)*x=(100/41.3)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
15000=2.4213075060533*x we divide both sides of equation by(2.4213075060533)to get x
15000/2.4213075060533=x
6195=x
x=6195
now we have:
41.3% of 15000=6195
I wrote all of my budget items as fractions at the rate of a EUR as the fraction will be quicker
to understand. In my budget, on the right side there are normal fractions with the denominator
180 and on the left side there are the simplified fractions. In order to calculate a simplified
fractions, we will take markets as an example.Below is the process done step by step:
First remove 2 decimal places by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 100
We are multiplying the fraction by 100 in order to move the decimals 2 places to the right.
61.95×100/180×100= 6195/18000
Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 6195 and 18000, if it exists, and reduce our
fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by it. GCF = 15, and getting our
simplified answer: 6195÷15/18000÷15=413/1200. Both of these numbers are co prime so this
is a simplified fraction.

Answer: 1837/4500=40.82%=0.40822
We know that
1837/4500 is the same as 1837÷4500. Then using Long Division for 1837 divided by 4500
gives us 0.40822 as a decimal
Converting our number to a percentage:
0.40822×100=40.82%
Rounded to a Max of 2 Decimal Places.
My budget is accurate because I used two reliable sources,(Xe .com) and (Numbeo)
and I have also lived in India for 10 years
In India, markets make a huge part in the budget and there is low spending on sports and
leisure. In Austria it is the opposite as the food costs less and people get paid.
There is no more significant differences.

Conclusion
I have made an appropriate budget for a family in India as they can use this document to
improve this budget. The limitation is that the family must earn 15000 INR per month.
I had no problems. There was more than enough information to make an accurate budget.
Next time, I will talk to my indian relatives.
