To determine how many months it will take for Natasha to have more money in her savings account than Sal, we can compare the amounts in the table.
In Month 1:
Natasha has $51 and Sal has $59.
In Month 2:
Natasha has $57 and Sal has $63.
In Month 3:
Natasha would have $63 if she adds $6 each month, which is greater than Sal's $63.
Therefore, it will take Natasha 3 months to have more money in her savings account than Sal in his.
