Question

An organization has raised $4800 for a remodeling project. This is 60% of their goal.

What is their fundraising goal

Answer 1

$8000

Explanation:

1. Work out 1% of the overall value:

4800= 60%

4800/60= 1%

80= 1%

2. Use this to work out 100%:

80 x 100= 100%

8000= 100%

3. Put this back into the context of the question:

Fundraising goal= $8000
