Raina is saving money to buy a game. So far she has saved
$16
, which is one-fourth of the total cost of the game. How much does the game cost?
16 * 4 = ?
To find out how much the game costs, we can set up a proportion. Let's assume the total cost of the game is represented by "x." We know that Raina has saved $16, which is one-fourth of the total cost.
So, we can set up the proportion as follows:
16 / x = 1 / 4
To solve this proportion, cross-multiply and then solve for x:
16 * 4 = 1 * x
64 = x
Therefore, the game costs $64.
