To find the answer we have to calculate total tickets.
We know that 13 students sold 150 tickets and rest sold 60 each.
First I want to find ticket sold by 13 student, so
13*150=1950
Rest of class is 24-13=11
Ticket sold by rest of class is
11*60=660
Total sold ticket is
1950+660=2610 they rich their goal

In class of 24 students, 13 students sold over 150 raffle tikets each and 24-13=11 students sold about 60 tikets each.

1. If 13 students sold over 150 raffle tikets each, then together they sold over 13·150=1950 raffle tikets.

2. If 11 students sold about 60 tikets each, then together they sold about 11·60=660 raffle tikets.

3. All together they sold about 1950+660=2610 raffle tikets. Since 2610>2000, they had achieved their goal.

Answer: yes.
