HELP!!!

Zach earns $37.50 every weekend for delivering newspapers. Zach is saving his earnings in order to buy a new computer that costs $470.80. If Zach already has $58.30, enter the minimum number of weekends Zach will need to work before he has enough money to buy the computer.

Answer 1

Explanation:

So first you have to subtract the total that the computer costs by how much zach already has. Then you get 411.7. Then you have to divide 411.7 by 37.50 to get how many weeks it takes to get the computer. Which is 10.96 or 11. 11 weeks is the answer! You can check this by multiplying 37.50 by 11 and add 58 because he already has that money, you will get 470! which is close so there you go!

Answer 2

Answer: 11 weekends

Step-by-step explanation: I did 470.80 divided by 37.50 and got 12 with a decimal, so then I multiplied 37.50 by 11 and got 412.5, then added the 58.30 .
