> Jenny wants to buy a new book. It costs $15. If she saves $5 a week, how many weeks will it be before she can buy the book?
Solution:
Divide total cost by weekly savings:
> $15 ÷ $5 = 3 weeks
✔ Answer: 3 weeks
---
> Every week, Paul saves $10. If he has $70 in the bank, how many weeks has he been saving?
Solution:
Divide total saved by weekly amount:
> $70 ÷ $10 = 7 weeks
✔ Answer: 7 weeks
---
> If Enrique saves $9 a week for 5 weeks, how much money will he have?
Solution:
Multiply weekly savings by number of weeks:
> $9 × 5 = $45
✔ Answer: $45
---
> Jennifer has already saved $10. She needs $25 to buy her mom a gift. How much more money does she need?
Solution:
Subtract what she has from what she needs:
> $25 - $10 = $15
✔ Answer: $15

> Isaac earned $7 for each day he fed the neighbor’s dog. He fed the dog for 3 days. How much money did he earn?
Solution:
Multiply daily rate by number of days:
> $7 × 3 = $21
✔ Answer: $21
---
> *(Partially cut off — likely similar to others)*
> “If Mick... how much...”
Since the text is incomplete, I’ll assume a common version:
> If Mick saves $8 a week, how much will he have after 4 weeks?
Solution:
> $8 × 4 = $32
✔ Answer (assumed): $32
*(Note: If you can provide the full text of problem 6, I’ll update this!)*
---
> *(Also partially cut off — likely continues from #6 or similar)*
> “If Mick... how much...”
Another common version might be:
> If Mick has $24 and saves $6 per week, how many weeks until he has $42?
Solution:
> $42 - $24 = $18 needed
> $18 ÷ $6 = 3 weeks
✔ Answer (assumed): 3 weeks
*(Again, please provide full text if possible for accuracy.)*
---
> Julie is buying a new art set. The set is $30. She plans to save $5 every week. How many weeks does she need to save before she can buy the set?

✔ Answer: 6 weeks
