Question

Jane is saving money to buy a game. The game costs $20, and so far she has saved four-fifths of this cost. How much money has Jane saved?

Answer 1

Answer: $16

To do this problem you need to first find out how much 1/5th of 20 is. Which we can do by multiplying 20 x 1/5 which will give us 4. Since $4 is 1/5 of the total amount and we need 4/5th this value, we can multiply 4 x 4 to get $16 saved in total.

Answer 2

she has 16$ saved

Explanation:

20 divided 5 = 4

4 fifths of 20 is 16
