Question: Gina had $400. She gave 1/4 of her money to her mom, used 1/8 of her money to buy clothes, gave 1/5 of her money to a charity, and kept the remaining money. How much did Gina keep? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
Gina's mom received 1 / 4 x $400 = $100. She used 1 / 8 x $400 = $50 to buy clothes. She gave 1 / 5 x $400 = $80 to a charity. Thus, she spent a total of $100 + $50 + $80 = $230. Therefore, Gina kept $400 - $230 = $170. So the answer is 170.
