Table: An office budget of ₱1,500,000 — Salaries 60%, Supplies 15%, Travel 10%, Training 15%. How much is allotted to supplies and training combined?
Correct answer: A. ₱450,000
Supplies and training together are 15% + 15% = 30% of ₱1,500,000 = ₱450,000. Adding the percentages first saves a step. Check by adding the two items: ₱225,000 + ₱225,000 = ₱450,000.
