Question

Alyson opened a savings account with

$100. She saves $50 per month. Which
equation shows how many months, m,
Alyson will have to save to have a total of
$250 in her account?

Answer 1

100 + 50m = 250

50m = 250 - 100

50m/50 = 150/50

m = 3

Alyson will have to save for 3 months to have a total of $250.
