The skateboard Rita would like to buy cost $6 less than three times the amount she has saved the skateboard cost $69 how much does Rita have to save? Choose the steps that show how to solve this problem using arithmetic.

Rita has $25 saved.

Step-by-step explanation:

You could think about it this way: $69 is $6 less than 3 times the amount of money that she has. So, let's solve this:

1) First you would add $6 to the $69 that the skateboard costs because you     need to know what her savings would be if she multiplied it by 3.

      $69+$6=$75  

2) Now that we know that if we tripled her savings, we would have $75. We can now find out how much she actually has saved up by dividing the total of $75 by 3.

      $75÷3=$25
