Every month, a girl gets allowance. Assume last year she had no money, and kept it up to now. Then she spends 1/2 of her money on clothes, then 1/3 of the remaining money on games, and then 1/4 of the remaining money on toys. After she bought all of that, she had $7777 left. Assuming she only gets money by allowance, how much money does she earn every month?

This is hardly calculus.

Assume the original money was in 24 parts. She spent 12 parts on clothes, she had 12 parts left. She spent 4 parts on games. She had 8 parts left. She spend 2 parts on toys. She had six parts left.

sixparts is 7777. What is the original 24 parts?

Ok, it is prealgebra, not calculus.
lol whatever it is. thanks =)
