weeks

Explanation:

Step1: Find the amount needed

First, we need to find out how much more money Dennis needs to reach $6,325. He currently has $4,000, so we subtract: $6,325 - $4,000 = $2,325.

Step2: Calculate the number of weeks

He deposits $75 per week, so to find the number of weeks, we divide the amount needed by the weekly deposit: $\frac{2325}{75} = 31$.

Answer:

31
