## Task 1

Detlef is saving for a bicycle. It is supposed to cost 360.00 DM.

When asked how much money he still needs, he says: "If I had six times as much money as I already have, I would have enough."

How much money has Detlef saved so far?
Let $x$ be the money that Detlef has. Then $6x = 360$ and thus $x = 60$. Detlef has saved 60.00 DM.
