One day Erica earned one half of her income weeding gardens, one fourth mowing lawns, and the rest planting shrubs. If she earned $30 planting shrubs, how much did she earn that day?

P. S. I came up with $22.50 is what she earn that day.


Please let me know if this is correct.

Thank-you!

1-(1/2+1/4)=1/4 for shrubs.
(1/4)x = 30, so aswell she also earned 30 mowing lawns.
And the weeding here is a hint 1/4+1/4=1/2
 
Bowier, what is 1 - 1/2 - 1/4 ?
If you can't calculate that, you need help fron your teacher...
