Question

How many weeks can Shanika withdraw money from her account

Answer 1

Step 1

Given;

`\begin{gathered} Money\text{ in her account \$500} \\ Money\text{ that will be left is \$200} \\ She\text{ withdraws \$25 weekly} \end{gathered}`

Hence the equation from the question will be;

`\begin{gathered} 500-25x=200 \\ where\text{ x= number of weeks} \end{gathered}`
`\begin{gathered} 500-200=25x \\ 300=25x \\ x=(300)/(25) \\ x=12 \end{gathered}`

Hence, the answer will be;

`12\text{ or less weeks}`
