Question 726955:
If a man gets his paycheck ,paid 955 dollars to his credit, and one third of the rest ,he deposited in the bank, the money left in his hand was 320 dollars..How much was his paycheck? Answer by checkley79(3341) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 320=2x/3 cross multiply
2x=3*320
2x=960
x=960/2
x=480 amount after that 599 was spent..
955+480=$1,435 amount of his paycheck.
Proof:
955+320+1/3*480=1,435
955+320+160=1,435
