Jimwell spent four-tenths of $20. What fractional part of $20 was left? Write the answer in decimal form.(1 point)
Jimwell spent four-tenths of $20, which is 0.4 * $20 = $8.
The amount left is $20 - $8 = $12.
The fractional part of $20 that was left is 12/20 = 3/5.
In decimal form, 3/5 is equal to 0.6.
