Question

A server makes $200 a week working at a local restaurant. The server saves 35% of the

$200 weekly earnings each week for 4 weeks.If the server saves 7/8 of the 5th week’s
$200 earnings, how much money will the server have saved in total after the 5 weeks?

Answer 1

It would have saved 445$
Explanation: because for 4 weeks he saved 35% of 200$ which would be 70 and 70+70+70+70 280$ and the he saved 175$ on the fifth week because 7/8 of 200 is 175 so 280+175 is 445
