Answer:

32$

Step-by-step explanation:

first divide 80 by 5.

(you should get 16)

next multiply by 2

(you should get 32)

this works because out of the 80$ he spent 2/5 of his money. you basically are multiplying the numerators and then dividing by the denominators and because 80 is a whole number it works without having to use the 1.

another way to do it is multiply 80/1 by 2/5

you should get 160/5 and when you simplify you should get 32
