Terry Harrington · Answer 1

245 dollars saved.

Step-by-step explanation:

On the left side put how much money he needs.

On the right side put how much money he is earning and has

300 < 120 + 25*5

300 < 120 + 125

300 < 245

This is not true so he does not have enough money for the skate board yet

He will have saved 245 dollars
