Answer:

  2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the fraction of Cheryl's income she spent in September. Then 1-x is the fraction she saved.

In October, her spending increased by 0.2x, and her savings decreased by 0.4(1 -x). Since Cheryl spends or saves all of her income, these two change amounts must be equal:

  0.2x = 0.4(1 -x)

  x = 2(1 -x) . . . . . . multiply by 5 to clear fractions

  x = 2 -2x . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  3x = 2 . . . . . . . . add 2x

  x = 2/3 . . . . . . divide by 3

Cheryl spent 2/3 of her income in September.
