Alexander went to his ATM and drew out a large amount of money for his expenses. For Christmas presents for his family, he spent $15 more on books than on CDs, which cost $15 more than toys. Cards were one-fifth the cost of toys and one-third the cost of calendars, which were $36. Alexander now had $27 left.
