Question

a student has a savings account with $475 in in it. She deposits $125 of her paycheck into the account every week. Her goal is to save 7,000 for college. How long will it take her to reach her goal of $7000?

Answer 1

52.2 weeks

Explanation:

7000 - 475 = 6,525

6525 ÷ 125 = 52.2

Answer 2

It will take her 53 weeks to get her goal of 7,000$

Explanation:

I subtracted 475 from 7,000 to see how much she needed to save for. I got 6525. I multiplied 125 times 52 and got 6500. To get to her goal she needs 25 more dollars so, she'll have to work another week to get to that goal.
