Answer: $53


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Earning of Arthur in three weeks = $136

Let x be the money he earn in one more week.

If he needs at least $189 to buy the new coat that he wants for school.

Then it gives the inequality @@MATH_TOKEN_0@@

Subtract 136 from both sides of the inequality, we get

@@MATH_TOKEN_1@@

Hence, Arthur must earn $ 53 in the next week.
