Answer:

The answer is E.

Explanation:

I am assuming that W is weeks, but however if you do the math on each one it doesn't equal 111, or it doesn't make sense. The first one doesn't make sense because why would 6 dollars and 45 dollars equal 111 weeks. The next one isn't a proper equation for this problem. The 3rd one is the exact opposite of the 4th one but neither of them add up to 111. So it has to be E.

Answer:

I'm pretty sure its D

Explanation:

w is represented by week of saving he gets 6 dollars every week so 6w

he gets 45 dollars from his presents so he adds the 45 to the equation leaving him 111 dollars

so the equation is 6w+45=111
