Answer:

1 week

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

p = 12w

Where,

w = number of weeks the office has been on the new recycling plan

p = total kilograms of paper recycled.

How many weeks will it take Scott's office to recycle a total of 12 kilograms of paper?

Find w when p = 12

p = 12w

12 = 12w

Divide both sides by 12

w = 12/12

= 1

w = 1 week
