Answer:

47 weeks

Explanation:

First, find how much he makes in a week

Multiply his hourly wage by the hours he works

5*20=100

He make $100 a week

To find how many weeks until he can afford the car, divide the cost of the car by how much he make a week

4650/100=46.5

It will take him 46.5 weeks, but because he doesn't get paid for 1/2 week, he has to work a full 47 weeks

Hope this helps! :)
