Question

A school wants to raise $2,500 to support its music program. If it has met 20% of its goal so far, how much money has it raised?

Answer 1

Answer:

They have raised $500 so far

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply $2500 by 20% (aka 0.2) and you get $500

(They need to raise another $2,000 still)

Answer 2

Answer:$500

Step-by-step explanation:

We could translate the world problem,to get an equation.

20% “of” 2,500. The “of” means that you have to multiply. Convert the percent to get 0.20, and multiply it by 2,500.

0.20*2,500=500
