Question

You rent a small 2 bedroom house. You paid a $600 deposit the day you moved in so your rent is only $250 each month. Since your roommate did not pay any of the deposit, her rent is $400 each month. In how many months will you and your roommate have spent the same amount?

Answer 1

The answers is 4 months .

Answer 2

At 4 months the amount spent is equal at 1,600.
600+250x
400x
250*4=1000+600=1600
400*4=1600
