Question

Dominic is asking his relatives and friends to contribute $2 each to the school library fund. So far he has collected donations from 23 of his relatives. The expression 2(f+23) represents the total amount of money Dominic expects to receive. What part of the expression represents the total number of people that Dominic expects to contribute $2 to his project?

A
f

B
23

C
f+23

D
2f+23

Answer 1

Option C : f+23 is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Given that:

Amount Dominic wants everyone to contribute = $2

Number of relatives who have contributed = 23

The expression is;

2(f+23)

As we know that 2 represents the amount and 23 represents the number of relatives who have donated, therefore,

f represents the number of people who would donate to the library fund, and

f+23 represents the total number of people who contributes to the fund.

Hence,

Option C : f+23 is the correct answer.
