Answer: She had $5400

Step-by-step explanation:

We will let x represent the total amount of money in her pocket .

So we know that 1/3 of x has to equal 1800 because 2/3 of the money is already been spent so 1/3 will of the money will be left.

1/3 * x = 1800  solve for x by divide both sides by 2/3

x=5400  

Check.

1/3 * 5400 =1800
