There are 60 new houses being built in a neighborhood. last month, 2/3 of them were sold. this month, 2/5 of the remaining houses were sold. how many houses are left to be sold?

Sold Last Month: 60 x = 40

Remaining from last month: 60 - 40 = 20

Sold This Month: 20 x = 8

Remaining from this month: 20 - 8 = 12

there are 12 houses left to be sold

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !
