Question

Alex is saving money because she would like to purchase the new video gaming system that everyone has been talking about. After two weeks of saving, she had $47. After 24 weeks of saving, she had $430. Approximately how many dollars per week did Alex save on average between weeks 2 and 24?

Answer 1

About $7 a day because nothing multiplied by two gives you $47.

Answer 2

First we take out the first two weeks

24-2 = 22
430-47 = 383

Now we are just left with after the two first weeks

383/22= 17.41 dollars
