Patty needs a total of $80 to buy a bicycle. She has already saved $35. If she saves $10 a week from her earning what is the least number of weeks she must work to have enough money to buy the bicycle

Astro:

How do you think we wold start this equation?

Uknownunicorn:

not sure

2685775412:

is H 5

Astro:

Well, I think we should subtract 80-35

Joe348:

you get 50 and she needs 50 dollars

Joe348:

so the equation would be 10 times the # of weeks =50

2685775412:

80-35=45 4 days x10 = 40 leaving 5 dollars left so u need another week to save 5 dollars more in total of 5 weeks

Joe348:

Then you want to divide both sides by 10 and you should get your final answer what that would look like 50/10=

Uknownunicorn:

thankyou.

$10 x 5 = $50
