Question

6. Ava had a rough day on the stock market. Her stocks dropped in value to

one third of what they used to be. If she currently has $140,000 in stock
value, how much were her stocks worth yesterday?

Answer 1

Her stock were worth 420,000 yesterday

Answer 2

420,000

Explanation:

If 140,000 is
`(1)/(3)` of what she had yesterday, then you just multiply the number by 3 because
`(1)/(3)` times 3 is
`(3)/(3)`, which is 1.
