Answer: The goal was $500

======================================================

Work Shown:

x% = x/100

175% = 175/100 = 1.75

Let g be the goal, which is the amount of money the club wanted to raise

175% of goal = 175% of g = 1.75g

The expression 1.75g represents how much money was actually raised, which was $875. Set the two expressions equal to each other. Solve for g

1.75g = 875

g = 875/1.75 ....... divide both sides by 1.75

g = 500

The club's goal was to raise $500

Note how 75% of $500 is 0.75*500 = 375

When they raised 175% of the goal, this means they went 75% overboard and added on 375 additional dollars (on top of the 500 they wanted). So they got to 500+375 = 875 which lines up with the instructions. This helps verify the answer.

Or we can see that 1.75*g = 1.75*500 = 875 which helps confirm the answer as well.
