40 years


37 years


27 years


25 years

Answer 1

To find the number of years it will take Cody to collect 577 coins, we need to subtract the number of coins he already has (22) from the target number of coins (577), and then divide by the number of coins Clark plans to add each year (15):

(577 - 22) / 15 = 555 / 15 = 37

Therefore, it will take Cody 37 years to collect 577 coins.
