Question

Kira wants to attend a college that will cost her $14,800 for the first year. To pay for it, her aunt gave her a special gift of $10,000 . Kira is also going to start saving $100 per month. How many years will it take Kira to save enough for the first-year cost?

Answer 1

It will take her 4 years to save. You would do 14,800 - 10,000 to find how much money Kira needs. If she’s saving $100 per month you do 4,800 divided by 100 which is 48 months. You’re trying to find years so you divide 48 divided by 12 to get 4 years
