Answer 2

The amount of money that Ross has = $0.97

Explanation:

We are told in the question that Ross has a fourth of the Amount needed to buy his computer.

Let us represent cost of the computer as = Y

Hence, Ross has = 1/4 of Y

From the question, we are told the cost of the Computer. Therefore,

Y = $213÷ 55

Y = $3.8727272727 = $3.87

The cost of the computer = $3.8727272727

Since Ross has 1/4 of the amount needed for the computer ,

This is calculated as : 1/4 × $3.8727272727

=$0.9681818182

Approximately: $0.97

Therefore, The amount of money that Ross has = $0.97
