after the first spending spree he has 0.85 M left
then he wanders into the horse track and spends 0.6 of that
so he has
0.85 M * 0.4 = 4080
M = 4080/(.4*.85)
= 12,000
then he wanders into the horse track and spends 0.6 of that
so he has
0.85 M * 0.4 = 4080
M = 4080/(.4*.85)
= 12,000

85-51=34%
34%=4080
100%=12,000
