Manny receives 6 dollars each week for allowance. He also had 45 dollars saved from birthday gifts. If he currently has 111 dollars, write an equation to represent how many weeks Manny has been saving money.

can't relate

6x+45 = 111

Don't really care

To solve this problem, we need to find the number of weeks Manny has been saving money. Let's assume that Manny has been saving money for "w" weeks.

Each week, Manny receives 6 dollars for allowance. So, in "w" weeks, he would have received a total of 6w dollars.

Manny also had 45 dollars saved from birthday gifts. Therefore, the total amount of money he had before starting to save would be 45 dollars.

Since Manny currently has 111 dollars, the equation representing his savings would be:

45 (initial savings) + 6w (allowance for "w" weeks) = 111 (current savings)

Hence, the equation representing how many weeks Manny has been saving money is:

45 + 6w = 111.
