The first month or one month is all it takes.
In one month both have 38 dollars

M represents the number of months:
30+8m=18+20m
30+8m-20m=18+20m-20m (subtract 20m from both sides)
30-12m=18
30-30-12m=18-30 (subtract 30 from both sides)
-12m=-12
m=-12/-12
m=1
After 1 month their savings will be equal.
