The amount Connor and Ashley need to make to have the same amount saved is $144

Savings

Let

  • Amount of paycheck = x

Ashley:

1/4x + 11

Connor:

3/8x - 7

  • Equate both savings

1/4x + 11 = 3/8x - 7

11 + 7 = 3/8x - 1/4x

18 = (3x-2x) / 8

18 = 1/8x

x = 18 ÷ 1/8

x = 18 × 8/1

x = $144

Therefore, the amount Connor and Ashley need to make to have the same amount saved is $144
