You can put this solution on YOUR website! s, total start sum of money
Spent equal amount for six days;
x, how much spent each of these six days
r, how much remaining right then,
of s remained after those six days;
MEANING,
or
Three more days, he had 360 dollars remaining.
I am not yet understanding your problem description. At best, you might still have just one equation in two variables.
Did Jason still spend x dollars on each of those three last days?
Now, two equations in the unknown variables x and s.
