Aaron is saving up to buy a new bicycle. He’s hoping to say more than $500 in the next four weeks so that he might be able to buy the new bicycle by the end of the summer at the beginning of this first week. His grandmother gives him $20 as a birthday present. He will also earn money each week working at his dad store. How much money will he need to earn each week working at his dad store to meet a saving goals
To save more than $500 in four weeks, Aaron will need to save at least $125 each week. He already has $20 from his grandmother, so he will need to save an additional $480 ($500 - $20) over the next four weeks. Therefore, Aaron will need to earn at least $105 each week ($480 ÷ 4 weeks) working at his dad's store to meet his saving goal.
