We are required to find the total sum of money given the fraction

The total sum of money is $9

let

Total sum of money = x

8 1/3 of x = $75

8 1/3 × x = $75

25/3 × x = 75

25/3x = 75

Divide both sides by 25/3

x = 75 ÷ 25/3

x = 75 × 3/25

x = (75 × 3) / 25

x = 225 / 25

x = 9

Therefore, the total sum of money is $9
