50-20= 30 dollars that she needs to earn.
30/6=5 weeks.

Answer:

6 weeks

Explanation:

Janelle is saving $6 per week, so to save $50, she will need:

$50 - $20 = $30 more

To find out how many weeks it will take her to save $30 at a rate of $6 per week, we can divide:

$30 / $6 per week = 5 weeks

Therefore, it will take Janelle 5 more weeks to save $50, for a total of 5 + 1 = 6 weeks.
