Malik spent 1/4 of his money shopping. the next day he spent 1/3 of the money he had left. now he has $42. how many money did malik have before he did any shopping?

Malik had a total of $84 initially

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Express the amount of money Malik had before he did any shopping as follows;

A=E+R

where;

A=initial amount Malik had

E=total expenditure

R=total remainder after spending

In our case;

A=x

E=Amount spent on shopping+a third he had left

Amount spent on shopping=1/4 x

Amount left=x-1/4 x=3/4 x

1 /3 of amount left=(1/3)×(3/4) x=1/4 x

E=1/4 x+1/4 x=1/2 x

R=$42

Step 2

Substitute the values in the expression and solve for A;

x=(1/2 x)+42

x-1/2 x=42

1/2 x=42

x=42×2=84

Malik had a total of $84 initially

step-by-step explanation: you take each of the numbers and divide by the amount then you take the range

6,250

step-by-step explanation:

to get the area, multiply 360 by 160.(57,600)

to find out how many bags of fertilizer it will take, first figure out how many square feet one bag can hold. divide 1000 by 8(125) to get the unit rate(how many square feet one pound of fertilizer can hold)and multiply it by 50(6250). if i haven't made a mistake, that is the answer.
