They are abstract "word" problems, offered for the purpose of giving the
student of high school mathematics valuable practice in the application
and manipulation of the concept of "percent".
Often, some time spent in solving practice-examples such as these can
lead to the phenomenon known as "learning", whereby the student comes
to know, understand, and possess competence in a topic where he or she
was previously ignorant and incompetent.
It is important to realize that the practice is the vital component in the process,
whereas the answers alone have no value at all.
Im pretty sure it would be $60. If im wrong im sorryyyyy

The total amount of degrees in a triangle is 180. All three angles should add up to 180˚
We know that 40+60 = 100
The next step is to do 180-100 to get the other angle.
180-100 = 80
So the measure of the third angle is 80˚
Hope this helps!
(Also if you want to do this in one equation, you would do 40+60+x = 180
40+60+x = 180
100+x = 180 (combine like terms)
x = 80 (Subtract 100 from both sides)
