Red · Answer 1

10 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

10% of 500=50

the total cost Anakin will pay is $550

165 + (40*n) = 550

n will equal 9.625

You can not have 5/8ths of a week when it comes to being given allowence, so you would round up

It will take Anakin 10 weeks to save up his money to buy an Xbox
