Question

If man's salary is 20 dollors a week and he spends 14 dollors a week how long will it take him to save 300 dollors

Solutions 

⇒ Given 

Salary - $ 20 

Spends - $ 14 

The first step is to subtract 14 from 20. When we do this, we will know how much he saves.

Calculations 

20 - 14 = 6 

He saves $ 6 each week. 

Now we have to find how many times 6 goes into 300. To do this we have to divide. 

300 ÷ 6 = 50 

It is going to take him 50 weeks. 

Answer 2

20-14=6 dollars a week (net)
300/6=50
50*7=350
50 weeks (or 350 days) to save $300.
