Answer 1

To find out what part of all the money you have left after spending 3/4 and 1/5 of the remaining, you need to work through the problem step by step.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out what part of all the money you have left after spending 3/4 and 1/5 of the remaining, you need to work through the problem step by step.

Let's say you started with 100% of your money. If you spent 3/4 of that, you have 1/4 of your money left (100% - 75% = 25%). Then, if you spent 1/5 of the remaining 1/4, you would have 4/5 left (1/4 * 4/5 = 1/5).

So, the answer is that you have 1/5, or 1/20, of all your money left and you spent 19/20, or 95%, of all your money.
