Jessie save $6 each week. In how many weeks will she have saved at least $50?
Y = number of weeks, then
6Y = $50
Y = 50/6 = 8.33 weeks so it will take 9 whole weeks
Good thank you I am in first grade
To find out how many weeks it will take for Jessie to save at least $50, we can use division to divide the total amount saved by the amount saved each week.
Let's assume that Jessie saves $6 each week. We need to find out how many weeks it takes for her to save at least $50.
Total amount saved = $50
Amount saved each week = $6
To find the number of weeks:
Weeks = Total amount saved / Amount saved each week
Weeks = $50 / $6
Dividing $50 by $6 gives us approximately 8.333.
Since we cannot have a fraction of a week, we need to round up to the nearest whole number of weeks. Therefore, it will take Jessie at least 9 weeks to save $50.
