See here 586 is divided by 451, we get 1/1.29
Which is approx. 1/1.3
Thats all but consumes some time.

We get 456/586 = (0.77)
Round off to 450/590(0.76) aprox then it becomes 45/59 = 3/4
= 1/( 4/3) = 1/1.3

We can solve it in a very simple way as follows:
Expenses in FUEL & TRANS is how much increased to that of expenses in TAXES.
We can find the increase in percentage like this->
586-451/451 x 100% = 30%.
i.e 100/130 = 10/13 or 10:13.
