Remember: Borrowing from family is still borrowing. A plan says how much, how often and when it ends.
Read and answer
Read the story first, then answer.
Leo borrows from GranLeo's class was going on a trip to the farm, and it cost six pretend coins. Leo had none saved. He asked Gran, "May I borrow six coins for the trip? I will pay you back two coins each Saturday." Gran said, "Yes, Leo, let's plan it together." She drew three boxes in a row, one for each Saturday, with two coins in each box. On the first Saturday Leo gave Gran two coins, and he still owed four. On the second he owed two. On the third the last two coins went to Gran, and Leo owed nothing. Gran asked for nothing extra, so only the same six coins came back.
