Answer:

8 Weeks

Explanation:

If Paulo takes what he has and subtracts it from what he wants to earn he gets 288 and then he divides that by how much he make he gets 8. So in conclusion he has to work 8 more weeks to get to his goal.

Hey You!

433 - 145 = 288

288/36 = 8

So, after having $145 already in his savings account, Paulo will have to work 8 more weeks to save up $433.
