Question

Vicki works 19 hours per week. Her take home pay is $17.30 per hour. If Vicki is able to save all of her earnings, how long will it take her to save at least $4,000?
a.
12 weeks
b.
13 weeks
c.
14 weeks
d.
15 weeks

Answer 1

Weekly pay = 19 × $17.30 = $328.70.
4000 ÷ 328.70 ≈ 12.17, so she needs 13 full weeks to have at least $4,000.

Answer: b. 13 weeks
