Latrell wants to spend less money with the goal of saving $100 to set aside for spending money on his upcoming vacation. Latrell usually spends $4.00 every weekday for lunch. If he packed lunch, his cost would be about $1.50 per meal. How many days would Latrell need to pack a lunch to meet his goal?

Respuesta :

The number of days that Latrell need to pack a lunch to meet his goal is 40 days

Given the following:

  • Total saving if Latrell wants to spend less money on his vacation = $100

  • The amount usually spent each day for lunch  = $4.00

If he packed lunch and his cost would be about $1.50 per meal, the amount saved on each lunch per day will be:

  • Amount saved each day = $4.00 - $1.50
  • Amount saved each day = $2.50

Since Latrel total savings for his vacation is $100, then the number of days that Latrell need to pack a lunch to meet his goal is given as:

  • Number of days = $100/$2.50
  • Number of days = 40 days

Hence the number of days that Latrell need to pack a lunch to meet his goal is 40 days
