Question

“Great job, you've already earned 1300 points, but there are 5 more days in this month. How many points a day do you need to reach your goal of 1580 points?”

Answer 1

You would have to get 56 points everyday.
If you subtract 1300 from 1580 you get 280. divide 280/5 which equals 56.
56*5=280
280+1300=1580.
56 is the amount of points you need

Answer 2

Answer:

It would take 56.5points a day of 28days month to reach the goal of 1580 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Goal point = 1580

Earned point = 1300

Number of days left = 5days

To find the number of days to acquire the remaining points, we will get it by finding the average number of point acquired per day and to find the average number of points acquired per day we will need to know the number of days it take to acquire the earned point.

Since we have 28, 29, 30, 31 days in a month

Possible number of day it take to earning = number of days in the month- number of days left

= 28 - 5 = 23 days or

= 29 - 5 = 24days or

= 30 - 5 = 25days or

= 31 - 5= 26 days

Amount earn per day in each case is

1300/23 = 56.5 points

1300/24 = 54.17 points

1300/25 = 52 points

1300/26 = 50 points

For each case above, highest number of points earnable point for the month will be

56.5 * 28 = 1582 points

54.17 * 29 = 1570.93 points

52 * 30 = 1560 points

50 * 31 = 1550 points.

So from these we see that earning 56.5 points per day for 28days will make me reach my goal of 1580 points.

It would take 56.5points a day for 28days month to reach the goal of 1580 points.
