Question

The Thornton Street Block Association wants to raise $2000 to plant trees. Two weeks after starting its campaign, the association had raised 65% of its goal. How much more money does the association need to raise?

Answer 1

65 % of their goal is:

$ 2000 • 65 / 100 = $ 1300


We can subtract the amount of money raised from the goal amount:

$2000- $1300 = $ 700


Option D is correct
