Rebecca bought groceries using 50% of her paycheck from her part time job. She saved 75% of the remaining amount of money and had $60 left. What was the amount of Rebecca's paycheck?

0.75 (1/2x) = 60

60/3 is 20, which is 25% of her remaining money,
So her total remaining money is $80.

Then 80 x 2 = 160
