I am 14 and I come to my dads every other weekend, which is 100 days per year. If I have to make $3,000 by the time I’m 16 how much money will I have to make each time I’m with my dad?
You're welcome! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. Good luck with earning the money!
If you come to your dad's every other weekend, and there are 100 days in a year when you are with him, then you will spend 100/2 = 50 weekends with him in a year.
To make $3,000 in 2 years, you will need to earn $3,000/2 = $1500 per year.
Since you spend 50 weekends with your dad each year, you will need to earn $1500/50 = $30 per weekend. Answer: \boxed{30}.
What if I was 13 which would mean 3 years
If you come to your dad's every other weekend, and there are 100 days in a year when you are with him, then you will spend 100/2 = 50 weekends with him in a year.
In three years, you will be with your dad for 3 x 50 = 150 weekends.
To make $3,000 in 3 years, you will need to earn $3,000/3 = $1000 per year.
Since you spend 50 weekends with your dad each year, you will need to earn $1000/50 = $20 per weekend. Answer: \boxed{20}.
