Answer:
1. 0.25T
2. 0.25n
3. T - 0.25T
4. T - 0.25n
5. 0.75n × 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The dollar amount the club would have if they reached one-fourth of their goal.
Since the goal is to raise T dollars
One-fourth of T = ¼ × T = 0.25T
2. The dollar amount the club would have if every student at the school donated a quarter to the cause.
Let the number of students in the school be n
Since there are n students in the school, amount raised = ¼ × n = 0.25n
3. The dollar amount the club could donate to the cat shelter if they reached their goal and gave a quarter of the total donation to a dog shelter.
Since they reached their goal, the total amount they raised= T dollars
They gave a quarter of the total donation to a dog shelter = ¼T = 0.25T
Amount left to donate to the cat shelter = T - 0.25T
4. The dollar amount the club would still need to raise to reach its goal after every student at the school donated a quarter.
Amount donated if every student donated a quarter = ¼n = 0.25n
Amount still needed = T - 0.25n
5. The dollar amount the club would have if three-fourths of the students at the school each gave 50 cents
Three-fourths of the students = ¾n = 0.75n
50 cents = 0.5 dollars
Amount raised if three-fourths of the students gave 50 cents = 0.75n × 0.5
