If $8 is one third of her allowance, then 8 times three is her allowance. So it is $24. 8x3= a

Answer:

$24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Lola's weekly allowance.

We have been given that Lola spends one-third of her allowance on movies. So one third of weekly allowance would be @@MATH_TOKEN_0@@.

We are also told that she spends $8 per week at the movies. We can represent our given information in an equation as:

\(\frac{1}{3}x=8\)

\(3\times \frac{1}{3}x=3\times 8\)

\(x=24\)

Therefore, Lola's weekly allowance is $24.
