Answer:

Jill had $136.50 before buying the book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total amount that Jill had

Then 12% of x is 0.12x

Jill was left with $120.12 after buying the book

Subtracting the cost of book from the total amount will given us the remaining amount.

Which means

x - 0.12x = 120.12\\0.88x = 120.12\\x = \frac{120.12}{0.88} \\x = 136.50

Hence,

Jill had $136.50 before buying the book.
