Question 1157120: You want to buy a new tablet that costs at least $450. You have already saved $1.30. You want to save the same amount each month for the next 4 months to have enough money for the tablet. What is the least amount of money you need to save each month?

If it is $1.30, then you need to save $448.70 over 4 months
then the monthly saving is $448.70/4=$112.18
IF this is $130 saved, then you need to save additional $450-$130=$320 over 4 months
That is $80 /month, dividing $320/4
