Answer:

Phil saves 60 pounds a week.

Explanation:

If Phil gets 240 pounds each week, and he saves one quarter, it means he is saving one fourth or twenty-five percent of his payment, so we have to divide the 240 pounds by 4 (or multiply the 240 pounds by 1/4 or 0.25) . This way, we have 60 pounds saved.

X= 240 (0.25)
