A very long time ago, at the beginning of the week, I was given some money for my birthday.
On Monday, I spent a quarter of the money on clothes.
On Tuesday, I spent one third of the remaining money on music.
On Wednesday, I spent half of the remaining money on food.
Finally, on Thursday, I spent the last £1.25 on a book.
How much birthday money did I receive?
