I'm doing this..the seventh grader way! >:D This is very easy. All you do is the opposite, i think. I'm not a smart person. Subtract 480 from 60 and when you get that answer divide it by 30. I'm pretty sure It'd give you the right answer but I'm sorry if you get it wrong.

60 + 30w = 480
30w = 480 - 60
30w = 420
w = 420/30
w = 14 weeks <--answer
