Answer:

Jennifer have $240.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Shaniqua is 25% less money than her older sister Jennifer.

Let Jennifer have x dollars.

Shaniqua have = (x - 25% of x) dollars

It is given that Shaniqua has $180.

[tex]x-\dfrac{25}{100}\times x=180[/tex]

[tex]x-0.25x=180[/tex]

[tex]0.75x=180[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.75.

[tex]x=\dfrac{180}{0.75}[/tex]

[tex]x=240[/tex]

Therefore, Jennifer have $240.
