Question

A girl has some money in the box3/8 of the money is 480 find the money in a box

Answer 1

$1280

Explanation:

We can set up the following proportion to represent the situation:

`(3)/(8)x = 480`

where
`x` is the total amount of money the girl has in the box.

We can solve for x by multiplying both sides of the proportion by 8/3.

`(8)/(3)\left((3)/(8)x\right) = (480)\left((8)/(3)\right)`

`\boxed{x = 1280}`

So, the girl has $1280 in the box.
