Answer: $180

Explanation:

We need to analize the information provided. We know that $480 is two-thirds
((2)/(3)) of Sam's weekly income.

Then, let me "x" one-fourth (
(1)/(4)) of Sam's weekly income. Based on the information, we can write the following expression:


x=(((1)/(4))(\$480))/((2)/(3) )\\\\x=\$180
