    The money Keira spent on food is $31.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Total money spent by Keira = $45

    Things Keira spent money on:

    1. Clothing

    2. Food

    3. Other items

    Money spent on Clothing = 1/5 of total money

    = 1/5 x $45

    Money spent on Clothing = $9

    Money spent on Other Items = 1/9 of total money

    = 1/9 x $45

    Money spent on Other Items = $5

    Money spent of on Food = Money spent - (Money spent on clothing + other items)

    Money spent on food = 45 - (9+5)

    = 45 - 14

    Money spent on food = $31
