Answer:

about 2 months/less than 2 months

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1:add all her monthly costs .In our case that equals 2150

step 2: subtract her monthly costs (2150) from the amount she get paid (2700) to get 550 in our case

step 3: now know she save 550 in 1 month so in 2 months she saves 1100

Step 4: you know now she reaches 750 sometime in between 1 and 2 months
