Please help!! And show work please.

Apartment A requires a $300 security deposit and costs $750 each month. Apartment B has a $500 security deposit and the monthly rent is $725. Write and solve an equation to find the number of months it will take for the total rental costs to be the same.​

500- 300 = 200

750 - 725 = 25

200÷ 25 = 8

it will take them 8 months for the total rent to cost the same
