Will works 7 hours a day, 6 days a week. He is paid £9.20 an hour. He shares his wages with his Mum in the ratio Will : Mum = 5 : 2 Will is saving all of his share to buy a car. How many weeks will it take him to afford a car worth £1 932?

Answer:It will take will 7 weeks to afford a car.Step-by-step explanation:First, work out how many hours a week he works:         7 hours a day x 6 days a week = 42 hours a week.Then, calculate his weekly wage:         42 hours a week x £9.20 = £386.40 / weekTo find how much of his wages he keeps, turn the ratio into a fraction. To do this, add all parts of the ratio to get the denominator, and then the part of the ratio you want to find is the numerator:         5 + 2 = 7         simons weekly wage = [tex]\frac{5}{7}[/tex] × 386.40 = £276Finally, to find out how many weeks it will take, divide the amount needed (£1932) by the amount per week (£276)         This should give you an answer of 7 weeks.
