The goal was to raise $500 and they sold 43 flowerpots. By how much did they exceed their goal?
Answer:
$145
Explanation:
From their sales of 43 flowerpots and considering that each flowepot costs $15 then the total sales will be 43*15=$645
Since the target is $500, to get how much they exceeded the target, we get the difference.
The difference will be 645-500=$145
Therefore, they exceeded target by $145
