Question

If you get 1$ every two weeks how many week will it take to get 1000

Answer 1

It would be 2000 weeks

Answer 2

Step 1 ) Apply numbers into fraction form. Include variables to represent numerator and denominator.

$\displaystyle\frac{2w}{1d}$

Note: w = week; d = dollars

Step 2 ) Multiply both sides by 1,000 to change 1d into 1,000d.

$\displaystyle\frac{2w}{1d}$

$\displaystyle\frac{2w}{1d} * \frac{1,000}{1,000}$

$\displaystyle\frac{2,000w}{1,000d}$

This means that the amount of weeks it'll take to reach 1,000 dollars is...

2,000.
