Given:

Total earning = $70

He spends
(1)/(5) of the total amount on movies.

He then spends
(1)/(2) of the remaining money on school clothes.

To find:

The remaining money.

Solution:

We have,

Total earning = $70

He spends
(1)/(5) of the total amount on movies.

Money spent on movie is

$\$70(1)/(5)=\$14$

Remining money after movie is

$\$70-\$14=\$56$

He then spends
(1)/(2) of the remaining money on school clothes.

Money spent on school clothes is

$\$56* (1)/(2)=\$28$

Remining money after movie and school clothes is

$\$56-\$28=\$28$

Therefore, the remaining money is $28.
