92.86%

Explanation:

Debt-to-income ratio is a comparison or personal debts against income. It is used to assess an individual ability to accommodate more debts.

The formula for for calculating Debt to income is

Debt to income is Total of Monthly Debt Payments

Gross Monthly Income

For Affan, Total debts are $450 + $375 + $50 + $100 = $ 975

Gross income is not given, we use net income which is $1,050

Debt to income ration = $975/$1050

= 0.92857 x 100

= 92.86%
