Answer: $33

Explanation:

1/5 of $60 is 12. 1/4 of $60 is 15. 15 + 12 = 27. To find out how much money Jane has, simply subtract 60 - 27 to get $33.

Mary has 60/4 = 15$

Nick has 60/5 = 12$

The total amount of money that Mary and Nick have is 15$+12$ = 27$

To find out how much money Jane has, we need to subtract the total amount that Mary and Nick have from the total amount of money they have altogether:

60$ - 27$ = 33$

Therefore, Jane has 33$.
