Question

Mr.Ramirez had $600. He saved 3/5 and spent 3/8 of the remainder

Answer 1

$450

Explanation:

Given function:

• $600,3/5,3/8

To solve:

• $600-3/5-3/8+3/5

Subtract the two terms:

1. 
   `600=(30)/(5)`
2. 
   `600`·
   `(3)/(5)=360`

Subtract the first value by 360:

• 
  `600-360=240`

Find 3/8 of 240 and then subtract it:

• 
  `240`·
  `(3)/(8)=90`

Combine the terms:

`360+90=450`

Therefore, Mr.Raminrez now have a total of $450..
