Give your answer as a fully simplified fraction.

Answer 1

To find the fraction of his money that Gabe spent, we can divide the amount he spent by the total amount he started with:

$60 / $100

This fraction can be simplified by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD), which is 20:

$60 / $100 = $3 / $5

Therefore, Gabe spent 3/5 of his money.
