You spent $85,489 on your arcade. If you make $10,153 per week on the video games, how many weeks will it take you to make twice what you spent on the arcade?

To make twice you spend on arcade, you will need to make:
$85,489 x 2 = $170 978

You make $10,153 a week
Number of weeks needed =
$170 978 ÷ $10,153
Number of weeks needed = 16.84 ≈ 17 weeks

You will need 17 weeks to make twice as much as you spent in arcade.
