Question

Linda had been collecting stamps for 5 weeks and had 25 stamps in her stamp book. Her book holds 64 stamps. She then began purchasing 3 stamps each week.

What was the total number of weeks that it took Linda to fill her stamp book?

weeks

Answer 1

13 weeks.

Answer 2

how'd you get that?

Answer 3

it is 13 because the remaining number of stamps she needs to collect is 64 - 25 = 39 and if she collects 3 stamps per week that is 39/3 = 13
