Using proportions, it is found that $55.7 billion was donated to educational organizations.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.
Of the $371 billion donated in total, 15% went to educational organizations, hence the amount is given by:
A = 0.15 x 371 = $55.7 billion.
Hence $55.7 billion was donated to educational organizations.

Take bus=5 times walk
b=5w
b+w=24
sub 5w for b
5w+w=24
6w=24
divide both sides by 6
w=4
sub back
b=5w
b=5(4)
b=20
bus-walk=20-4=16
answer is 16 more take the bus than walk
You would multiply 6 by 3 and x by 4. You would end up getting 4x = 18 and then you simplify that to get 9/2 or 4.5.
