If she has 122 it will take her four more weeks after that so from the start it has taken her seven weeks
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thanks
OpenStudy (ja1):
yes because 24 * 4 = 96 and 96 + 122 is way above 200

Well after a reality check I realized it's not 4 weeks 4 weeks is only what you would need on top of the 122 so it would be 6.25 weeks
OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (ja1):
or just round to 7 if thats not an answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Thats what I said 7 weeks altogether
OpenStudy (ja1):
