Answer:

no

Explanation:

Correct question:

Tanya is saving for a vacation. She wants to have at least $75 for each of the 12 days for her trip. If she saves $85 each month for 10 months will she save enough money?

Solution:

She wants $75 for each of the 12 days.

That means that the amount of money she needs is 12 × $75 = $900.

She saves $85 per month for 10 months.

Total saved: 10 × $85 = $850.

She needs $900 but only saves $850.

She does not save enough.

Answer: no
