Nicole has $120.00. If she saves $20.00 per week, in how many days will she have $500?
Nicole has $120.
So, we can subtract this amount from $500.
Then, $500 - $120 = $380
The amount of $380 is what she really needs to total $500.
We can divide $380 by $20 to find the number of weeks.
So, $380/$20 = 19 weeks.
There are 7 days in a week. If we multiply 7 times 19, we will learn how many days if will take Nicole to save $500.
So, 19 X 7 = 133 days
