How much does he need to save up? ** He needs to save up $400 because 4 x 100 = <<4*100=400>>400
How many months does he have? ** He has 8 months to earn this money because 12 - 4 = <<12-4=8>>8
How much does he need to earn each month? ** He needs to earn $50 a month because 400 / 8 = <<400/8=50>>50
How many chores does he need to average a month to save up for his supplies? ** He needs to do 5 tasks a month because 50 / 10 = <<50/10=5>>5
