Question

A rare Pokemon trading card deck you have been wanting to buy costs 4500. You have earned 2485 from helping your mom in her online selling business. If you can save 155 weekly from your allowance, how many weeks would it take for your funds to reach 4500

Answer 1

POKEMON YEAH!

Okay, so you first want to take 2485, and subtract it from 4500, because that is the amount of money he has already collected.

4500 - 2485 = 2015

Now you need to find out how many time you can multiply 155, to get 2015, or higher. In this case, I am just gonna divide:

2015/155 = 13

It will take him 13 more weeks to have enough for the Pokemon cards!

Hope it helps! =D
