For how many weeks will Steven needs to deposit money into his savings account before he can pay back his sister and buy the bike?

Answer 1

you can add the price of the bicycle + the amount owed to the sister to determine how much he needs to save up in total

from there, divide by $30 per week to find how many weeks it'll take to save up that much

if your answer is a non-integer, round up to the nearest integer
