For every $\$5$ I put in my piggybank, my friend Amy puts $\$3$ in hers. We both started saving at the same time with $\$0$ in each of our piggybanks. When we broke open our piggybanks I had $\$120$ more than Amy. How much money did Amy have?

Answer:$180

Step-by-step explanation: 5 x 60 is 300

3 x 60 is 180

300-180=120 meaning Amy had 180 dollars in her piggy bank
