Woody wants to buy a games console that costs $282. Woody already has $42 and receives an allowance of $24 every week. How many weeks will it take him to save the money he needs for the game console? Give me reasons, before answering the question
Woody needs to save another $282 - $42 = $240 to be able to afford a games console. It will take Woody $240 / $24 / week = 10 weeks to save up enough money. So the final answer is 10.
