Question

Diana’s mom deposited $300 to her college savings account.For the next 6 months she deposited $80 each month.How much money in total would be in the account after the 6 months

Answer 1

You know all the parts that are needed, so you can make an equation as follows,

80(6) + 300

You wouldn't multiply 300 since that is the first deposit.

You end up with,

480+300

780

$780
