Answer:

23 weeks

Explanation:

For 1 week he can learn 2 new pieces. He wants to pay 46 pieces. So we would make the following equation:


2x=46 where x is equal to the number of weeks

We can then solve for x by dividing 46 by 2.


(46)/(2) =23

So in order for Justin to learn 46 pieces, it would take 23 weeks.
