The 17 students on the math team want to raise $483.62 to buy practice books. They have already raised $218.25. If each student raises the same amount, how much money must each student raise?

Each student should raise $15.61. First you subtract the already earned 218.25 from the goal, 483.62. Then you divide that number from 17
