Answer 2

you need to find out the total spent on both and then divide by the total population. This is misleading because obviously not everyone smokes or drinks.

Answer 3

Alot of money.  It soon mounts up and each time they put up the prices the amount will increase significantly.

#some booze is dead cheap  others is very expensive.  Somebody can be spending less money but be  buying more  little bottles of stronger stuff.
