You can set up a proportion. The quick answer is 600
7.5/900 = 2.5/x
x = 900 * 2.5 / 7.5
x = 900 * (1/3)
x = 300
But that is not the answer. The question is what does she save.
900 - 300 = 600
You could get the answer more directly. She does not eat 5 oz cake, so solve for that.
5/x = 7.5/900 Cross multiply
5 * 900 = 7.5 x
4500 = 7.5x Divide by 7.5
4500/7.5 = x
600 = x
Ginger would be 8 years old.
8+3=11
16-2=14
16/2=8
The Rule of 72 is a shortcut method to find the number of years to double your investment. This is only an estimation. This can be done by dividing 72 by the annual interest rate.
However, you are given a nominal rate since it is compounded annually. Let's convert this by this equation:
annual rate = (1+i/m)^m - 1, where m is the number of periods in a year. Thus, m=2
annual rate = (1 + 0.065/2)^2 -1 = 6.61%
Applying Rule of 72,
72 ÷ 6.61% = 10.89
This is where I found a problem. The answer here just directly divided 72 by 6.5% which will equal to 11.1 years. This is not accurate, since the given interest is compounded semi-annually. That is not an annual interest rate.
Nevertheless, the answer is still close to letter A.) 11.1 years.

5.702 rounded to the nearest unit is 6. Look one decimal place further to determine what to round to. Greater than or equal to 5, round up. Less than 5, keep it the same.
For example, 5.402 rounded to the nearest unit would be 5 because the next decimal point is 4
