Correct answer is B
Total budget =$7,200
Expenditure on Health = x/$7200 × 3600 = 600

x = $1,200
Therefore, the budget allocated to Health is $1,200
Expenditure on Agriculture =x /$7200 × 3600 = 800
3600x = 800 × $7200
x = 800 × $7200/3600
x=$1,600
Therefore, the budget allocated to Agriculture is $1,600
