³₄ of Harry's savings comprised of 10-cent coins and 20-cent coins. Harry used some 10-cent coins to purchase a board game. The number of 20-cent coins left was 40% more than the number of 10-cent coins left. Given that Harry had 30 more 20-cent coins than 10-cent coins left in the end, find the amount of money Harry spent on the board game.

	10-cent coins	20-cent coins
Before	3x7 = 21 u	1x7 = 7 u
Change	- 16 u
After	5x1 = 5 u	7x1 = 7 u

Fraction of Harry's savings that comprised of 20-cent coins
= 1 - ³₄
= ¹₄

Number of 20-cents coins in the end in percentage
= 100% + 40%
= 140%

140% = ¹⁴⁰₁₀₀ = ⁷₅

Number of 20-cent coins remains unchanged. Make the number of 20-cent coins the same.  LCM of 1 and 7 is 7.

Number of more 20-cent coins than 10-cent coins
= 7 u - 5 u
= 2 u

2 u = 30

1 u = 30 ÷ 2 = 15

Number of 10-cent coins spent on the board game 
= 21 u - 5 u
= 16 u
= 16 x 15
= 240

Amount that Harry spent on the board game 
= 240 x 0.1
= $24

Answer(s): $24
