Answer:

Rayshawn originally had $30.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Rayshawn has a certain amount of money. Let us say this amount is $x.

ii) Rayshawn spends $20 which means that he is left with $(x - 20)

iii) it is also given that amount of money left after spending $20 is \dfrac{1}{3} of the original amount, $x, the amount remaining is \dfrac{\$x}{3}.

iv) from the information given in ii) and iii) we get

     $(x - 20) = \dfrac{\$x}{3},  Therefore we get 3x - 60 = x , therefore 2x = 60,

  Therefore x = $30. Rayshawn originally had $30.
