$4650 and he doesn't have a job. The only

and he can only work 20 hours a week. How

can buy the car?

Answer:

47 weeks

Explanation:

you multiply 20 times 5 because he makes 5 dollars and hour and works 20 hours a week, so then you get 100. so he makes 100 dollars in a week. then you divide 100 by 4650 and get 46.5 which rounded up is 47. so he needs to work 47 weeks.
