The second and 3dr

The third is the same as the second. But in the 3rd the x is multipied by 5/7 so when you multiplies by 7/5 you have the x isolated. Then you do the same thing on the other side, and multiply 19.60 by 7/5

so x=19.60 multiplied by 7 and then divided by 5

x=27.44 (amount spent on the store)
