If gym strong charges a $350 fee and $15 a month and gym fit charges $100 fee and $24 a month, how many months would take for gym string to be a better buy?

It would take 28 months for Gym Strong to be a better buy.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two possible options for gyms to choose from:

Gym Strong charges $350 plus $15 a month

Gym Fit charges $100 plus $24 a month.

Since Gym Strong charges less per month but has a higher initial fee, there will be some time when it will be a cheaper option than Gym Fit.

Let's solve this by analyzing the differences in fixed fees and monthly fees.

The difference of fixed fees is $350 - $100 = $250

The difference on monthly fees is $24 - $15 = $9

Both gyms will charge the same total fees when have passed 250/9 = 27.7 months. Since the number of months is a whole number, we round up.

It would take 28 months for Gym Strong to be a better buy.
