Every weekend Felicia is paid $30 to do the gardening for her
grandparents. She is saving her money to buy a new bike that
costs $189. So far, she has saved $60.
What is the minimum number of weekends she'll have to
continue to do the gardening in order to have the $189 she
needs for the bike?

Answer 1

she needs to work a minimum of 5 weekends

Explanation:

60 + 30w ≥ 189

30w ≥ 129

w ≥ 4.3

Answer 2

5 weekends

Explanation:

Felicia already has 60$ of her goal of 189$ so 189-60=129

129/30=4.3

Felicia would need to work exactly 4.3 weekends to make up her goal, but you cant split a weekend into decimals, so we round up to the next whole number which is 5.
