To calculate the number of months it will take Shaun to afford the car, we need to divide the cost of the car by his monthly income.

Cost of the car: $27,793
Monthly income: $1700

Number of months = Cost of the car / Monthly income
Number of months = $27,793 / $1700

Using a calculator, we find that the number of months is approximately 16.35.

Rounding to the nearest whole month, Shaun will need approximately 16 months to afford the car.
