Answer:

10 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one

Given

Chuck has $500

Chuckle wants to save $100 monthly

Let the number of months be x

And the total be y

So

Y=500+100x--------1

Holy has $500

Chuckle wants to save $500 monthly

Let the number of months be x

And the total be y

So

Y=1000+50x--------2

Equate 1 and 2

500+100x=1000+50x

1000-500=100x-50x

500=50x

x=500/50

x=10
