Question

Liza earns $3200 a month. She spends 3/8 of her salary every month. She gives her parents 2/5 of the reminder and saves the rest. How much money does she save every month​

Answer 1

Answer: $2480

Explanation:

First, find a common denominator of the fractions

15/40 and 16/40

then add them to find the total spending each month

12/40 + 16/40

=31/40

= 0.775

then do 0.775 (her spending) multiplied by 3200(salary)

0.775 x 3200

=$2480
