Question

Johnny needs to save $24.00 to buy a new video game. Three weeks after saving, he has $6.00. After 6 weeks, he has $12.00. If Johnny continues to save at this rate, how many total weeks will he have saved money to reach his goal?

Answer 1

He is saving $2/week

24/2=12 weeks

Answer 2

He will need to save up for 12 weeks because he is getting 2 dollars a week.
It says after 3 weeks he saved 6, so divide six by three and the answer meaning he makes 2 a week. Next divide 24 by 2 and you get 12.
