Jamal and Samuel are saving for a camping trip. Jamal starts with $18 and saves $5 each week. Samuel starts with $10 and saves $7 each week. The total cost of the trip is $46 per person. If they must pay for the trip in 5 weeks, will each boy have saved enough to pay for the trip? Explain.

Jamal :

have = $18

need = $46-$18

= $28

saves = $5 each week

= $5 × 5 weeks

= $25 ( not enough )

Samuel :

have = $10

need = $46 - $10

= $36

saves = $7 each week

= $7 × 5 weeks

= $35 ( not enough )

thus, both boys would not have enough money to pay for the trip .
