Elga is 20 years old and Alvin would be 5. Hope this helped.

Take how much money she needs, which is $175. Subtract $10 from that. You get $165. Now divide that by $5. $165 divided by $5 is 33. That's 33 months. BUT, we also have to include the first month (because that month is saving money too, $10). So that month (1) plus the others (33) equals 34 months.
So, the answer: 34 months.
God bless!
