Question: Rica's group won in a dance competition. She got 3/8 of the prize money. From Rica's prize money, she spent 1/5 of it and is now left with $300. How much was the prize money that her group won?
Answer:
Rica is left with 1 - 1 / 5 = 4 / 5 of her prize money which is equal to $300. Since 4 / 5 is worth $300, then 1 / 5 is worth $300 / 4 = $75. So, Rica got $75 x 5 = $375 from their prize money which is 3 / 8 of the total prize. Since 3 / 8 is equal to $375, then 1 / 8 is worth $375 / 3 = $125. So, the total prize money is $125 x 8 = $1000. The answer is 1000.
