Question

since starting a new recycling plan, reagans office recycles 2 kilograms of paper each week. how many weeks will it take reagans office to recycle a total of 12 kilograms of paper?​

Answer 1

If they’re recycling 2 kg per week:

After 1 week, they’d recycle 2 kg.
After 2 weeks, they’d recycle 4 kg.
After 3 weeks, they’d recycle 6 kg.

If you keep this up, you’d find it takes 6 weeks to recycle 12 kg. (6*2 = 12)
