Answer:

52/[(8 - 2) + (10 - 3)]

Step-by-step explanation:

Jeff earns $8 and spends $2 each week.

Each week he keeps (8 - 2).

Joe earns $10 and spends $ each week.

Each week he keeps (10 - 3).

The total amount they keep each week is

(8 - 2) + (10 - 3).

If you divide the cost of the game by the amount they keep each week, you get the number of weeks.

Answer: 52/[(8 - 2) + (10 - 3)]
