on a shopping trip gill spends 1/3rd of his money in store A then he spends 1/3 of money he has left in store B. Finally he spends his remaining $12 in store C. How many dollars did he have at the start?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the money he had at the start be $x

Store A = 1/3 of $x = $ x/3

Remaining = $ x/1 - $x/3 = $ 2x/3

He spends remaining $12. So,

2x/3 = 12

2x = 36

x= $18(Answer)
