Asha has to buy some gifts but has no money. She decides to borrow $20 from her brother, $40 from her father, $30 from her mother and is gifted $70 by her granny. She adds this to her savings of $100 and goes out to Target to get what she wanted. If she spent 3/4 of the money, how much money did she remain with?
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:
With the amount borrowed from her family, she has a total of 20 + 40 + 30 = 90 dollars. With the amount gifted from her granny, she has 70 + 90 = 160 dollars. She adds this to her savings, ending up with a total of 160 + 100 = 260 dollars. She spends 3 / 4 of this money, which is 3 / 4 * 260 = 195 dollars. The total she remains with is 260 - 195 = 65 dollars.
Thus, the answer is 65.
