Question

Jeffery wants to save the same amount of money each week to buy a new bike. He needs $252. If he wants the bike in 14 weeks, how much money should Jeffery save each week?

Answer 1

252/14=18
Total amount of money/how many weeks=rate:money per week
FINAL ANSWER: $18 PER WEEK

Answer 2

Given that he is saving a uniform amount of money each week, all you need to do is divide $252 into 14 equal pieces, one piece for each week.

252/14=18

So he must save $18 each week, as if he saves that every week for 14 weeks he will end up with $252
