Question

Jesus believes in looking his best when searching for a job. He wants to save $435 for a new suit for his interviews. He currently has $65.00 and he can save $18.00 per week from his work.

How many weeks in total will it take him to save for the suit, assuming he puts the $65.00 into an account on week 1 and starts saving each week thereafter?

Answer 1

Explanation:

He has $65 on the first week. He’s missing $370. If he can save $18 a week. 370/18 = 20.5. But they’re asking for the total weeks it’ll take. So add the first week. 20.5 + 1 = 21.5

not mine but he did he get it right

Answer 2

6.7 weeks.

Explanation:

65.00 x 6.7 = 435.50
