Of maria's total salary, 1/4th goes to taxes and 2/3rds of what remains goes to food, rent, and bills. if she is left with $500 each month, what is her total monthly salary?

Respuesta :

1/4 + 2/3 + x = 1   ⇒  3/12 + 8/12 + x = 1   ⇒  11/12 + x = 1   ⇒   x = 1/12

1/12(y) = 500

      y = 500 (12)

      y = 6000

Answer: $6,000
