Answer:

$100

Explanation:

If Omar spends $300 to earn 1800 reward points, you want to know how much he spent to earn 600 reward points.

Ratio

The dollars and reward points are proportional:

1800 points : $300 = 600 points : $100 . . . . . . divide each number by 3

Omar spent $100 to earn 600 reward points.
