The table shows the amount of money in your savings account over a period of 6 weeks. You plan to keep saving at the same rate until you have $825 in the account. Which equation could you use to find the number of weeks, n, it would take to reach your goal?

You would first divide the amount of money you have by 6, since that is the amount of weeks you used to save up your money. This is the amount of money you save per week. Then, you would find out the difference between $825 and your current savings. That number is the amount of money you need to get. To find out for how many weeks to save for that money, divide the number you just got by the amount of money you get each week. Or, for this step, you can use this equation: (x=your current money) ($825-x) / (x/6) = n
