Answer:

Part a)
(11)/(25)

Part b)
0.44

Part c)
44\%

Explanation:

Part a) Write the number as a fraction

Let

x ----> the amount of money raised

y ---> the goal of the fundraiser

The numerator of the fraction is the amount of money raised (x)

The denominator of the fraction is the the goal of the fundraiser (y)

we have


x=100,000+10,000=\$110,000


y=\$250,000

substitute


(x)/(y)=(110,000)/(250,000)

simplify


(11)/(25)

That means

The proportion of the amount raised by the goal of the fundraiser is 11:25

Part b) Write the number as decimal number

we have


(11)/(25)

Divide the numerator by the denominator


(11)/(25)=0.44

Part c) Write the number as a percentage

Multiply the fraction number or the decimal number by 100


0.44(100)=44\%
