Answer :

It will take four weeks.  Week 1: 400 - 35 = 365 for aaron, week 2: 365- 35 = 330 for aaron, week 3 330 - 35 = 295 for aaron, week 4 295 - 35 = 260 for aaron,  WEEK 1 for candy is 215 (200 + 15), WEEK 2 for candy is 230 (215 + 15), WEEK 3 for candy is 245 (230 + 15), and WEEK 4 = 260 (245 + 15).
ANSWER: 4 weeks
Let's just work it out Aaron's first week Is: Candies first week is: 400-35= $365. 200+15= $215 Second week: Second week: 365-35= $330. 215+15= $230 Third week: Third week: 330-35= $295. 230+15= $245 Fourth week: Fourth week: 295-35= $260. 245+15= $260 Now Aaron and Candies amount of money are equal!
