can someone plz help with this question

im just wondering who knows this because i already know this answer

To find out how much money Lamont earns, we can set up an equation using the information given. Let's assume Lamont's earnings for the week are represented by 'x'.

We know that the $120 he spends on groceries is 25% of his earnings. In other words, 25% of 'x' is equal to $120.

Mathematically, we can represent this as:

0.25x = 120

To find the value of 'x', we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation. We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 0.25:

(0.25x) / 0.25 = 120 / 0.25

Simplifying this, we get:

x = 480

Therefore, Lamont earns $480 this week.
