A government collects $600 billion annually in tax revenue. Each year it allocates $35 billion to healthcare and $50 billion for education. What percentage of annual tax revenue is allocated to these two categories of government spending?

14.17%

Explanation:

Annual tax revenue = $600 billion

Allocation for healthcare = $35 billion

Allocation for education = $50 billion

total allocation for healthcare and education = ($35 + $50) billion = $85 billion

percentage of these two categories of government spending to the total revenue generated is,

85/600 x 100% = 14.17%
