Sherita’s club is selling grapefruit to raise money. For every box they sell, they get $1.35 profit. They have sold 84 boxes already. How many more boxes must they sell to raise 270 dollars

For every box of Grapefruit they sell they get $1.35 - they sold 84 boxes

84 * 1.35 =113.4
270 - 113.4 = 156.6
156 ÷ 1.35 = 116

They need to sell 116 more boxes of grapefruit to raise 270 dollars
