Dylan Spent 3/8 Of His Money On Clothes And He Had 60 Pesos Left. How Much Did He Have At First?

Dylan spent 3/8 of his money on clothes and he had 60 pesos left. How much did he have at first?

Answer:

Dylan had 96 pesos at first.

Step-by-step explanation:

Original amount of money: x  or 8x/8

Amount of money spent on clothes: 3x/8

Amount of money left: 60 pesos

The amount of money left in fraction:

8x/8  -  3x/8  = 5x/8

Therefore, the equation is:

5x/8 = 60

Find x, the original amount of money:

5x/8 = 60

(8/5) 5x/8 = 60 (8/5)

x = (60 × 8)/5

x = 480/5

x = 96 pesos
