Answer:

3 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Let after m months they saved same amount of money.

Given,

Saving of Jaclyn = $ 120,

Amount earned by him/her per month = $ 40,

So, the total amount contained by him/her in m months = Saving + earning for m months

= 120 + 40m,

Similarly, saving of Pedro = $ 180,

Amount earned by him/her per month = $ 20,

So, the total amount contained by him/her in m months = 180 + 20m

Thus, we can write,

120 + 40m = 180 + 20m

40m = 180 + 20m - 120

40m - 20m = 60

20m = 60

⇒ m = 60/20 = 3.

Hence, it will take 3 months before which Jaclyn and Pedro have saved the same amount of money.

Hope this helps u! if not sorry
