Jerrit wants to buy this really cool car but it cost $4650 and he doesn't have a job,and the only job he can find will pay him $5.00 an hour and he can only work 20 hours a week.How many weeks will he need to work before he can buy the car?

1 Answer

Answer :

If Jerrit is making $5.00 an hour and can work 20 hours per week, that would mean that he makes $100 per week of work ($5.00*20hours). If you take the cost of the car ($4650) and divide that by $100 per week, you would find that it would take 46.5 weeks to ear enough to purchase the vehicle.
