Utilities                                    ($136)

Car payment                           ($277)

Orthodontist payment            ($196)

Groceries($66*4 weeks)         ($264)

Other expenses                       ($204)

Savings                                     $317

Answer:

$317

Explanation:

the amount left will be each month = net pay - total expenses

net pay ( after taxes) = $2,200

total expenses

rent                       $806

utilities                  $136

car                         $277

orthodontist          $196

groceries($66×4)  $264

others                     $204

total expenses =     $1,883

amount left each month = $2,200 - $ 1883

=$317
