Solving a Math Problem with Time I

Marvin Mouseketeer was tired of being bullied by Kitty Catketeer. He wanted to buy a sharp sword to slice up the cat. A good sword costs €244. However, Mouseketeer had only €154 in his pocket. If he could save €6 each month, (i) how long will it take him in years and months before he could deal with the cat?

Sword=€244

Marvin has=€154

Saves = €6 each month

 

244-154=90

\frac{90}{6}=15months

(i) how long will it take him in years and months before he could deal with the cat?
Answer= 1 year and 3 months
