Judi has $100 and Eleanor has 75G were saving five dollars per day and Eleanor 77 per day. What equation would be used to find out how many days it will take for Judy and Eleanor to have the same amount of money saved.

Answer 1

Let's assume that x represents the number of days it will take for Judy and Eleanor to have the same amount of money saved.

The amount of money Judy saves in x days would be 5x (since she saves $5 per day).
The amount of money Eleanor saves in x days would be 77x (since she saves $77 per day).

To find when Judy and Eleanor will have the same amount of money saved, we can set up the equation: 5x = 77x.

Therefore, the equation would be: 5x = 77x
