Solution Steps

To calculate the annual movie expenses based on weekly spending, we need to multiply the weekly spending by the number of weeks in a year. For the rent, we multiply the monthly rent by the number of months in a year. Finally, to find the percentage of the movie expenses relative to the rent expenses, we divide the annual movie expenses by the annual rent expenses and multiply by 100.

The annual movie expenses can be calculated as follows: \[ \text{Annual Movie Expenses} = \text{Weekly Spending} \times 52 = 24 \times 52 = 1248 \]

The annual rent expenses are calculated by: \[ \text{Annual Rent Expenses} = \text{Monthly Rent} \times 12 = 900 \times 12 = 10800 \]

To find the percentage of movie expenses relative to rent expenses, we use the formula: \[ \text{Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Annual Movie Expenses}}{\text{Annual Rent Expenses}} \right) \times 100 = \left( \frac{1248}{10800} \right) \times 100 \approx 11.56 \]
