Answer: $6.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Total money = $80

She spends 3/5 of the money on Monday, means that she spends

3/5 x 80 = $48

That means she spent $48 on Monday, the remainder will be

$80 - $48 = 32

Since she spend the remaining money equally over 5 days, this means that she will spend 32/5 each day.

Therefore, she spent $6.4 each of the five days
