Question

Steven wants to buy a $565 bicycle. Steven has no money saved. But will be able to deposit $30 into a savings account when he receives his paycheck each friday. However, before steven can buy the bike, he must pay his sister $65 that he owes her. For how many weeks will steven need to deposit money into his savings account before he can pay back his sister and buy the bike?

Answer 1

565+65=630 so he needs that much to get the bike AND pay his sister back. 630 divided by $30 is 21. So, in 21 weeks, Steven Can pay back his sister and get the bike
