Answer :
rocco spent 20% of the money
let this all money as x
20 percent of x is x/5
so x/5=$48
x=$240
So,
The sporting goods store is offering a discount of 40%.
20% of Rocco's money equaled the price of the golf club after the 40% discount.
After the 40% discount, the golf club was $48.
Therefore, 20% of Rocco's money was $48: the amount he spent on the golf club.
Multiply 20% by 5 to get 100%.
48 * 5 = 240
Rocco had $240 in his savings account before buying the putter.
