    Since Jin donated his money to charity and he donated $864, that is our total.

    We don't know the first amount, so we can call it x.

    We don't know the second amount either, but we do know it was 5 times the first, so 5*x = 5x.

    We first need to find how much Jin earned for the first song. We need to find x.

    x + 5x = 864, then combine like terms6x = 864, then divide both sides by 66x/6 = 864/4x = 144

    The fist song made $144. But the second made 5 times that. So we just multiply 144 by 5. 144*5=720.

    The final answer is $720.
