Explanation:

Question: the chess club accepts 5 new members each week and it had 37 members after 6 weeks ? how many members per week and how many members did it start off with.

If the chess club accepts 5 each week and they had 6 members after 6 weeks you should multiply 5x6=30. We don't know when the chess club started.. it could be 6 or 7 weeks ago and I'm pretty sure we all know that 7x5=35. but it only says 6 weeks ago so the answer is 7,

hope this helps!!!!
