Yvette wants to frame a new picture. When she goes to her local frame shop, she finds out that the frame she wanted is 20% more expensive than her budget of $60. If she paid for a smaller frame at 3/4 the new price of the frame she initially intended to buy, how much money did she remain with? Let's think first. Chain of thought:
The frame she initially intended to buy was 20 / 100 * $60 = $12 more expensive than she had thought. This means the frame was being sold at $60 + $12 = $72. If she paid for a smaller frame at 3 / 4 the price of the frame she initially intended to buy, she paid 3 / 4 * $72 = $54. Yvette remained with $60 - $54 = $6.
Therefore, the answer is 6.
