Melissa exercises for 20 minutes every day. She decides to increase her daily exercise time by 5 minutes each week. However, according to her doctor’s orders, she can spend no more than 45 minutes a day exercising. For how many weeks can Melissa increase her exercise time this way?

Respuesta :

Let's start by finding the difference between Melissa's maximum time limit and her every day exercising time.

45-20 = 25 minutes.

Now we know that each week she increases her time by 5 minutes. Therefore, we have to find how many 5's can fit in the 25 minute difference.

25/5 = 5 weeks

Melissa increases 5 minutes every week for 5 weeks until she reaches her limit of 45 minutes.

I hope that helps!
