Well 3 times 52 weeks in a year. Equals 156. He will not have enough money by the end of the year.
3*52=156

So, the cost is $210. And he needs to save $3 each week for one year, and by the end of the year, will he have enough money to buy the penny?

So, there are 52 weeks in one year. 52 x $3 = $156

So, no. He won't have enough money to buy the penny by the end of the month.

Hope this helps love! <3
