Answer:

2 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Damian requires the first and last months rent = $1500

His monthly income is $1,300

The first month's expenses are $300 ( groceries, cable, and internet)

Possible savings from month one = $1000 ($1300 - $300)

To get $1500, Damian will need to save for two months.
