Rafael is saving money to buy a game. So far he has saved $30, which is five-sixths of the total cost of the game. How much does the game cost?

Answer:

$36

Explanation:

30 is 5/6 of the game, so we can think that 1/6 is equal to 6, since 5(6) is 30.

If we add another sixth, we get 36, which will be the total cost of the game.
