Question 995326
Let's call the amount she saved x
x= 60-(60(1/4+1/3))Let's add the fractions. Multiply x 12
12*1/12*4= 12/48 simplify, 12 goes 4 times into 48: 4/12
12*1/12*3= 12/36 simplify, 12 goes 3 times into 36: 3/12
4/12+3/12= 7/12. Now:
60-(60*7/12)= x
60-(60*7/12)=x
60-(420/12)=x
60-35= 25 ∴ x= 25 This is how much she saved, $25
