Answer:

If Hamdah still needs $211, she has been saving for 17 weeks(17b). Hamdah still needs $126 after 5 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract $211 from $500, you will get $289. After you must divide $289 by 17 because Hamdah earns $17 each week, you will get 17 and that represents how many weeks she has been saving. Hamdah still needs $126 because taking the information from the last question she has $289 (289+211 equals 500, 211 is how much she needs and 289 is how much she has) so we subtract 289 from 500 and we will get 211, then you subtract the product of $17 × 5 weeks from 211 and you will get $126. So, after 5 weeks, Hamdah will still need $126.
