A.11

B.29

C.40

D.69

Answer 1

11 months

Explanation:

We know that Amy has a saving of $725 which she needs to make it up to $1000 by saving $25 each month.

This means that Amy needs to save $1000 - $725 = $275 more dollars to have exactly $1000 dollars.

If Amy saves $$25 each month, then the number of months that she needs to save money will be = 275 / 25 = 11 months
