Question

Aubree makes $25 a week helping her mom with her siblings. She wants to buy a computer that cost $500. How many weeks will it take her to have enough money to buy the computer?

Answer 1

Answer:

20 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

This question, luckily, can be solved with a very simple algebraic expression.

Let w = the amount of weeks.

$25w = 500$

So from here, we need to divide both sides by 25 to get w by itself: $w = 20$

Therefore, it will take Aubree 20 weeks to have enough money to buy the computer.
