Answer 1

Answer:

$5,370.75 would be raised if 903 people donate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The amount of money fundraised is proportional to the amount of donations.

If 3069 dollars are raised through 516 donations.

Now, to find the money raised if 903 people donate.

Let the money raised if 903 people donate be $x.$

So, $3069 is equivalent to 516.

Thus, $x$ is equivalent to 903.

Now, to get the money by using cross multiplication method:

$\frac{3069}{516} =\frac{x}{903}$

By cross multiplying we get:

$2771307=516x$

Dividing both sides by 516 we get:

$5370.75=x\\\\x=\ 5370.75.$

Therefore, $5,370.75 would be raised if 903 people donate.
