Step-by-step explanation:

Esme earns a net salary of $2400 per month.

In her saving account she already have a balance of $100.

She saves $100 every month after her monthly expenses.

She plans to buy a car of $20000 using a no interest loan .

She usually make a $300 payment on the loan every month.

The number of months she will save enough money to pay off her loan completely can be calculated below.

let

x  = number of months

The amount she saved altogether every month is $300 + $100 = $400.

Recall she already has $100 in her account

Amount of loan to be repaid = 100 + 400x

20000 = 100 + 400x

20000 - 100 = 400x

19900 = 400x

divide both sides by 400

x = 19900/400

x = 49.75 months
