Angie got some money for his birthday. He spent 1/5 of it on dog treats for his puppy. Then he divided the remainder equally among his 3 favorite charities. If he donated $60 to each charity, how much money did he receive for his birthday?

Answer:

225

Explanation:

60 x 3 = 180 ($60 for each charity and there's 3 charities)

180 / (4/5) = 225 (if $180 is four fifths of his total just divide 180 by 4/5 to get the answer)
