Assuming both players can answer the same question, the minimum number of questions is the smallest number that when multiplied by either 0.60 or 0.80 yields a whole number.

Let x be the number of questions, solving by trial and error:

$if\ x=2\\x*0.8=1.6\\x*0.6=1.2\\\\if\ x=3\\x*0.8=2.4\\x*0.6=1.8\\\\if\ x=4\\x*0.8=3.2\\x*0.6=2.4\\\\if\ x=5\\x*0.8=4\\x*0.6=3\\\\$

Therefore, the minimum number of questions in the game is 5.

Answer: the total amount of money that they wanted to raise is $2400

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total amount of money that Keelan and her friends want to raise.

After the first event they raise $240 which is 10% of the total amount they want to raise. The amount of money that raised after the first event is expressed as

10/100 × x = 0.1 × x = 0.1x

Therefore,

0.1x = 240

Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.1, it becomes

x = 240/0.1

x = $2400
