Answer:

the money left after purchasing the purse is $111

Explanation:

The computation of the money left after purchasing the purse is given below:

Since in the question it is mentioned that she bought a purchase with one-fourth of money

And, the purse cost is $37

So the amount left would be

= $37 × (3 ÷ 4) ÷ (1 ÷ 4)

= $37 × 0.75 ÷ 0.25

= $111

Hence, the money left after purchasing the purse is $111
