  1. 100 · Ten deposits of £10 make £10 × 10 = £100.
  2. 4 · Planned spending is £2 + £3 = £5. Subtracting £5 from £9 leaves £4 to save.
  3. 5 · £2 a week for 5 weeks makes £10, since 2 × 5 = 10.
  4. Write the trip cost, payment date and weekly saving · The cost, date and weekly saving let you check whether the plan can reach the trip goal.
  5. 9 · She still needs £30 − £12 = £18. £18 divided between 2 weeks is £9 each week.
  6. Save £5, pay £3, spend £2 · £5 + £3 + £2 = £10, and four £5 deposits make £20. The £8 saving plan needs £13 weekly; the £4 saving plan reaches only £16.
  7. 4 · £6 a week adds up to £24 after 4 weeks: 6, 12, 18, 24.
  8. 7 · Four deposits make £7 × 4 = £28. £35 − £28 = £7 short.
  9. Seven weeks gives £14; eight gives £16 · Seven deposits make £14, which is £1 short. The eighth deposit brings the total to £16, enough for the £15 goal.
  10. 3 · She still needs £12, since 18 − 6 = 12. Saving £4 a week for 3 weeks makes £12.
