Question

Jorge is looking to buy a new computer. The computer he wants to buy costs $860. He has already saved $210. If he earns $162.50 per week and saves all the money he earns to pay for the computer, how many weeks will he need to work in order to have enough money to buy the computer?​

Answer 1

it would take 4 weeks to buy his computer

Explanation:

2 weeks=324

the 50 cents in 2 weeks =100

210+324=523

523$ in 2 weeks

523+324=858

856$ in 4 weeks

add the 4 weeks of 50 cents.

50x4=200=2.00$

2.00+858=860$

tadaaaaaa
