Answer:

30 is the cost of clothes Kyle bought.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Kyle spend 1/5 of his money on clothing.

          Remaining money is 120.

Lets assume the total money Kyle had be "x".

∴ Money spent on clothes = \frac{1}{5}\times x= \frac{x}{5}

Now, putting up value in the equation to find the total amount of money.

We know, money remaining is 120

x-\frac{x}{5} = 120

Taking LCD subtract the fraction.

⇒ \frac{(x\times 5)- x\times 1}{5} = 120

⇒ \frac{5x-x}{5} = 120

⇒\frac{4x}{5} = 120

Multiplying 5 both side

⇒4x= 120\times 5

dividing 4 on both side.

∴x= \frac{120\times 5}{4}

∴ x= 150

Kyle has total 150 money to spend.

Kyle spent \frac{1}{5} of his total money on clothing.

⇒ cost of clothes kyle bought= \frac{1}{5} \times 150= 30

Hence, Kyle spent 30, which was the cost of clothes kyle bought.
