Answer: $300

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Calvin earned  [tex]\$2400[/tex]

He spent  [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] on food i.e.

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{8}\times 2400=\$900[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{3}\quad \text{on taxes i.e.}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{3}\times 2400=\$800[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{6}\ \text{on other expenses i.e.}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{6}\times 2400=\$400[/tex]

Remaining money = [tex]2400-900-800-400=\$300[/tex]

So, he saved $300 after expenses
