Question

The fourth graders sang on a​ two-day telethon for the local​ children's hospital. The hospital hoped to raise​ $760,000. On day​ one, they raised​ $398,139. On day​ two, they raised​ $376,173. Did they reach their​ goal? About how much more or less did they​ raise? Estimate by rounding to the nearest ten thousand.

Answer 1

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Given that :

Amount hoped to Raise = $760,000

Amount raised on day 1 = $398,139

Amount raised on day 2 = $376,173

Did they reach their​ goal?

Amount raised on day 1 + amount raised on day 2

$398,139 + $376,173 = $774312

Yes, because ;

$774312 > $760,000

$774,312 - $760,000 = $14,312

Amount was surpassed by $14,312

= $14,000 ( to the nearest ten thousand)
