Answer:
<u>$2142.86</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
The remaining part of her money, after spending 3/5 of it and depositing 1/8 of it is equal to $750.
===============================================================
Retracing the steps :
⇒ She put 1/8 of the remainder in the bank, which gives $750
⇒ R - R/8 = 750
⇒ 7R/8 = 750
⇒ R = 750/7 × 8
⇒ R = 107.142857 × 8
⇒ R = 857.142856
* Don't worry, we'll simplify at the end of the answer *
=============================================================
Now, this remainder is what was left after spending 3/5 of it.
⇒ T - 3/5T = 857.142856
⇒ 2/5T = 857.142856
⇒ T = 857.142856/2 × 5
⇒ T = 428.571428 × 5
⇒ T = <u>$2142.86</u> (nearest cent)
