Their monthly Social Security retirement benefits at those ages in today's dollars are estimated to be $3,200 for Jimmy and $2,000 for Lucy. They think their expenses in retirement in today's dollars will be 70% of their total cash outflows now. Other than Social Security, they will rely on their retirement savings in order to meet their retirement expenses. They want to assume they will die in the same year, when Jimmy is 95 and Lucy is 90 years old.Determine what the payments will be in the distribution phase.

How much is that monthly amount?Note: this question is asking about the withdrawals they will need, not about the expenses they will be incurring monthly.
