Answer:

Where did the plague begin?

I think the plague is thought to have originated in Asia over 2,000 years ago and was likely spread by trading ships, though recent research has indicated the pathogen responsible for the Black Death may have existed in Europe as early as 3000 B.C.

Your school raised 125% of its fundraising goal. The school raised $6750. What was the goal?

Let, the Goal = x

It would be: x * 125% = 6750

x * 1.25 = 6750 [ 125% = 1.25]

x = 6750 / 1.25

x = 5400

In short, Your Answer would be $5400

Hope this helps! :)
