Answer:

They donated 6%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total sales were $9800.

The amount donated is $588.

We want to know what percent of 9800 is 588.

Let's make an equation.

what percent of 9800 is 588

x/100 • 9800 = 588

Divide by 9800.

x/100 = 0.06

Multiply by 100.

x = 6

They donated 6%.

Hope this helps!
