================================================
Let's say you start off with $100. If you spend 3/4 of that, then you spend 75 dollars (because 75/100 = 3/4). Think of it like 75 cents = 3 quarters. If you spend 75 dollars out of 100 total, then you have 100-75 = 25 dollars left after the first round of spending.
If you spend 1/5th of what is left, then you spend $5 on the second round leaving 25-5 = 20 dollars left at the end of the day.
Total up what you spend for both rounds: 75+5 = 80, which divides over the original amount 100 to get 80/100 = 8/10 = 4/5
If you had 20 dollars at he end of the day, out of 100 initially, then 20/100 = 2/10 = 1/5 is the fraction of what you have left.
note how 4/5 and 1/5 add to 5/5 = 1.00 = 100%. This is because the amount you spend and the amount you have left over must add to 100% of all the money you started with
