Question

Randall is saving money to buy a bicycle. He has $37.80 in his savings account and saves 20% of his paper route earnings each week. After 10 weeks, he has $87.80 in his savings account. How much does Randall earn each week from his paper route?

Answer 2

What you need to do is subtract $37.80 from $87.80 to get 20% of the amount of money he made in eight weeks. Then multiply that amount by 20 to get the amount that he made in 10 weeks. Then, divide that number by 10 to get how much he earns in 1 week.

Answer 3

Can you take it from there?
