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.
