Steven wants to buy a $530 bicycle. Steven has no money saved, but will be able to deposit $35 into a savings account when he re
ceives his paycheck each Friday. However, before Steven can buy the bike, he must give his sister $65 that he owes her. For how many weeks will Steven need to deposit money into his savings account before he can payback his sister and buy the bike? Use an equation to solve.
35 every week. 3 weeks would be 105, hours, enough to pay his sister back, leaving us with 40. 14 weeks later and he has 490, plus the 40, is enough to buy the bike. 17 weeks in total. The way i would write it is (530+65) divided by 35 is 17
1647. 1 hour=60 minutes. John can mow 247 square feet per minute, so he can mow 60*247=14820 square feet per hour. 1 yard=3 feet, so 1 square yard =3^2=9 square feet, so in the same duration of time, John can mow 14820/9=1647 square yards (approximately) per hour.
