Answer:

24,138 pennies

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

Fernanado saves a total of 8,046 pennies every two weeks

Required

the number of pennies saved in six weeks

Step two:

If in 2 weeks he saved 8,046 pennies

then in 6 weeks he will save x pennies

cross multiply we have

2x= 6* 8,046

divide both sides by 2

x= 48276/2

x=24,138 pennies
