Question

If two-thirds of Sam's weekly income is $480, what is one-fourth of his weekly income?

Answer 1

Answer: $180

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to analize the information provided. We know that $480 is two-thirds $(\frac{2}{3})$  of Sam's weekly income.

Then, let me "x" one-fourth ($\frac{1}{4}$) of Sam's weekly income. Based on the information, we can write the following expression:

$x=\frac{(\frac{1}{4})(\ 480)}{\frac{2}{3} }\\\\x=\ 180$

Answer 2

Answer:

180$

Step-by-step explanation:

If two-thirds of Sam's weekly income is $480

so total is $720

720$/4= 180$
