Ethan got some money for his birthday. He spent 15of it on dog treats. Then, he divided the remainder equally among his 3 favorite charities. What fraction of his money did each charity receive? If he donated $60 to each charity, how much money did he receive for his birthday?

$15 dog treats
$60 each charity
(60 * 3) + 15 - amount of money
180 + 15 = $195

60/195 - fraction $ each charity receive
0.307
