Answer:

Total amount of money collected = $14000

Explanation:

Let the total amount collected by count soccer club be $x

The club spent 12% of total amount on soccer camp expenses

So, 12% of x = soccer camp expenses


\implies 12\%\text{ of x = 1680}\\\\\implies (12)/(100)* x = 1680\\\\\implies x =1680* (100)/(12)\\\\\implies x = 14000

Therefore, the total amount of money that the club collected = $14000
