In this case we have that the total cost of the tickets is $87.If she is $23, then she is missing:


87-23 = 64

He is missing $64.

If you can save $4 per week we have:


4x \geq64

Where "x" represents the number of weeks to work:


x \geq \frac {64} {4}\\x \geq16

So, Ling must work at least 16 weeks to get the money he needs for concert tickets.

Answer:

16 weeks
