Question

Ryan is saving money to buy a game. The game costs $30, and so far he has saved five-sixths of this cost. How much money has Ryan saved?

Answer 1

Answer: $25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he needs a total of $30, and he has saved 5/6, we can make this equation:

Let "m" be the amount of money Ryan has saved.


30*(5/6)=m

30*5=6m

150=6m

m=25

Ryan has saved $25 dollars.
