Question

Jacob saves $166 a month. Jacob saves $236 less each month than Lane. How much will Lane save in 2 years?

Answer 1

Jacob save 166 a month for 2 years = 166(24) = 3984

Lane saves 236 more than Jacob per month = 166+236 = 402

Lanes save 402 for 2 years = 402(24) = 9648

9648-3984 = 5664 = how much more Lane will save in 2 years

or a more direct calculation:

236(24) = 5664
