Question

6) When Alysha got paid she spent 1/4 of her money on rent
She spent 2/5 on other bills and put the rest in the bank.
What fraction of her pay went
into the bank?
A) 3/4
B) 3 /5
C)13/20
D) 7/20​

Answer 1

Answer:

D) 7/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Part of money spent = (1/4) + (2/5)

                                 $=\frac{1*5}{4*5}+\frac{2*4}{5*4}\\\\=\frac{5}{20}+\frac{8}{20}\\\\=\frac{13}{20}$

Fraction part that went to bank = 1 - (13/20)

                                                    $=\frac{20}{20}-\frac{13}{20}\\\\=\frac{7}{20}$
