adriana plans to use $260 less than three-fourths of her savings to buy a car. If the purchase price of the car is $9340, how much does she have in savings?

Respuesta :

Let x = Adriana's savings
(3/4)x - 260 = 9340
(3/4)x = 9600
x = $12800
This one is easy, but tricky!

Let's say her total savings = x (4/4)

So, 9340 = (3/4x) - 260
9340 + 260 = 3/4x
9600 = 3/4x
(9600x4)/3 = x
12800 = x
