HEY GUYS I NEED HELP WITH THIS PLZZ! write down everything from the detail of how yall found ur answer plzz! 20 points or more... Math problem: Julie went shopping. She spent ⅙ of her money on books, ⅛ of her money on shoes and $5 on food. She had $13.50 left. Write an equation to represent this information. Solve the equation to find how much money she had at the beginning of the day?

1/6+1/8+$13.50+$5=x

x=$18.79

Step-by-step explanation:

i add them

first i find the common denominator for 1/6 and 1/8

then i add 13.50 by 5

then add 18.50 by 7/24

i hope this explains how i got my answer

Total amount of $ at beginning of day ⇒ ( About ) $ 26.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us say x represents ⇒ amount of $ at the beginning of the day;

If she spent 1 / 6 of this total money on books, we can say that the amount spent on books is 1/6x. Consecutively if 1/8 of this money was spent on shoes, the amount spent on shoes is 1/8x;

Knowing that $13.50 was remaining, let us set up the following equation;

x - ( 1/6x + 1/8x + 5 ) = 13.50 ⇒ now let us solve for x,

x - ( 1/6x + 1/8x + 5 ) = 13.50 ⇒ add similar elements, expanding,

x - ( 7/24x + 5 ) = 13.50 ⇒ distribute the minus sign

x - 7/24x - 5 = 13.50 ⇒ multiply either side by 24,

17x - 120 = 324 ⇒ add 120 to either side,

17x = 444,

Solution; Total amount of $ at the beginning of day ⇒ ( About ) $ 26.1
