Question

Everyday Jayden saves a half of his lunch money. By Friday he has $ 600. How much money does he get daily for lunch?​

Answer 1

The amount he gets for lunch is an illustration of mean and averages.

He gets for lunch is $240 daily

Represent the amount he gets for lunch each day be x.

So, the amount saved each day is x/2

From Monday to Friday, the total savings would be 5x/2

So, we have:

$\mathbf{\frac{5x}{2} = \ 600}$

Multiply both sides by 2

$\mathbf{5x = \ 1200}$

Divide both sides by 5

$\mathbf{x = \ 240}$

Hence, the amount he gets for lunch is $240 daily
