1 answer

To calculate how much Jefferson could save after 10 weeks by not buying a cheeseburger every day, you can follow these steps:

  1. Calculate the daily cost: Jefferson spends $3.50 every day.

  2. Calculate the total number of days in 10 weeks:
    10 weeks × 7 days/week = 70 days

  3. Calculate the total cost for 10 weeks:
    Total cost = Daily cost × Total number of days
    Total cost = $3.50 × 70 = $245.00

Therefore, if Jefferson eliminates the cost of the cheeseburger and only eats at home, he could save $245.00 after 10 weeks.
