92+ 15x > $800 I cannot do the greater than or equal sign on my phone.
15x> 800-92
15x> 708
X > 47.2 weeks… this should be greater than or equal to 47.2 weeks or if whole weeks, 48 weeks

Not sure if you need a whole number (week) or a fraction of week to answer. If whole week, it would need to be greater than or equal to 48 weeks
