Answer:

It will take him about 10 weeks to save that amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find 10% of 500, then add.

.10×500= 50

500+50= 550

Subtract the number of money he has saved to the cost of the Xbox and sales tax.

550-165= 385

Divide 40 to 385.

385÷40= 9.62500

The number 9.62500 can be rounded to 10 weeks.
