Question

How many weeks can Shanika withdraw money from her account

Answer 1

Step 1

Given;

$\begin{gathered} Money\text{ in her account \ 500} \\ Money\text{ that will be left is \ 200} \\ She\text{ withdraws \ 25 weekly} \end{gathered}$

Hence the equation from the question will be;

$\begin{gathered} 500-25x=200 \\ where\text{ x= number of weeks} \end{gathered}$$\begin{gathered} 500-200=25x \\ 300=25x \\ x=\frac{300}{25} \\ x=12 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the answer will be;

$12\text{ or less weeks}$
