Given :

Miranda goes to the store she plans to spend $7dollar sign, and each time Savannah goes to the store she plans to spend $9 sign a few weeks from now.

Miranda and Savannah are surprised to find out that they have spent the exact same total amount of money at the store.

To Find :

Least possible number of times that Miranda has been to the store.

Solution :

It is common to see that :

7 dollar/visit ×9 visits = $63

9 dollar/visit ×7 visits = $63

Therefore, minimum number of times Miranda has been to the store is 9.

Hence, this is the required solution.
