Riley needs to save at least $150 for a new phone. She has already saved $80. If she can

set aside $14 each week, how many weeks does she need to save money before she can
purchase the phone she wants?

HELP!!!

Answer:

5

Explanation:

Since Riley has already saved 80 dollars and she needs to save 150 dollars.

150-80=70

She earns 14 dollars per week:

70/14=5

I also wrote a equation:

(150-80)/14=x

Hope this was helpful!
