On a shopping trip Peter spent 1/3 of his money for a jacket and another $5 for a hat. if peter still has half of his money left, how ,much did he have originally

Respuesta :

(a) 18

18 / 3 = 6

6 + 5 = 11

18 - 11 = 7

18 / 2 = 9

7 \neq 9


(b) 24

24 / 3 = 8

8 + 5 = 13

24 - 13 = 11

24 / 2 = 12

11 \neq 12


(c) 30

30 / 3 = 10

10 + 5 = 15

30 - 15 = 15

30 / 2 = 15

15 = 15


(d) 48

48 / 3 = 16

16 + 5 = 21

48 - 21 = 27

48 / 2 = 24

27\neq 24


(e) 60

60 / 3 = 20

20 + 5 = 25

60 - 25 = 35

60 / 2 = 30

35 \neq 30

Answer: (c) $30

Hope this helps!


$30 is your answer

On the shopping trip, Peter spent 1/3 of his money: 30/3 = 10

He spends another $5. Add 10 with 5: 10 + 5 = 15

15/30 = 1/2 (he spent 1/2 of it, with half left)

$30 is your answer

hope this helps
