Answer:

The answer is 6 months.

Explanation:

Let x be the number of months Huda saved.

Given is that she starts with $30 and adds $25 each month.

So, for x months, Huda will on 25x dollars.

Then total saved in x months =
30+25x

Now, after several months Huda saved $180.

So, equation becomes=>


30+25x=180

=>
25x=150

x = 6

Therefore, Huda saved for 6 months.
