Dean spent 1/6 of his money on sports shoes and $30 on a shoe bag.
He spent 1/5 of the remainder on a jersey and saved the rest. He saved $236.
a) What was the cost of the Jersey?
b) How much more did he spent on sports shoes than on jersey?
x - x/6 = 5x/6
1/5 * (5x/6 - 30) = x/6 - 6
(5x/6 - 30) - (x/6 - 6)
5x/6 - 30 - x/6 + 6
$(4x/6 - 24)
$(4x/6 - 24) = $236
4x/6 - 24 = 236
4x/6 = 236 + 24 = 260
x = (260 * 6)/4
x = 340
= 390/6 - 6 = $59
$390/6 - $59 = $6
(a) $59
(b) $6
