For this, we can set up a proportion.
Their aim was 15000, so if they raised 100% of their goal, they wouldve raised exactly 15000.
They raised 557%, so how much did they make?

Proportion:

$15000 100%
$x 557%

Our expression would be x=$15000*557% divided by 100%, which would be $83550, so... a lot of money.

(we did an “x” formation with the proportion, ie “connected” x with 100, and “connected” 15k and 557. The number connecting to x is what we divide the equation by, and the other two are multiplied and then divided by the first number connecting to x. Otherwise we couldve calculated 557% of 15000 and gotten the same result. Whichever way is easier for you :) )
