Students in Mrs. Crosby's third grade class are working on times tables, and they demonstrate mastery by passing tests. Sadie has passed 2 tests so far. Her classmate, Deion, has passed 6 of them. From now on, Sadie plans to take and pass 4 tests per week. Meanwhile, Deion plans to do 2 per week. At some point, Sadie will catch up to Deion. How long will it take?

Respuesta :

Answer:

2 Weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Sadie is currently behind Deion by 4 tests (6 - 2). Since Sadie plans to take and pass 4 tests per week, and Deion plans to do 2 per week, the gap between them will decrease by 2 tests each week (4 - 2).

Therefore, it will take Sadie 2 weeks to catch up to Deion (4 tests gap ÷ 2 tests reduction per week).
