8.25 / 11 = 0.77 times 18 = 13.86 the answer would be 13.86
That's pretty much a tricky question though

The first step is to identify the order in which the equation must be solved, by following PEMDAS (you might know it as BEDMAS):
Parenthesis (or Brackets)
Exponents
Multiplication and Division
Addition and Subtraction
My advice would be to add parenthesis, following these rules, if you are not very good at finding them immediately by sight.
So:

We check our answer:

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
