Answer: 64%

Step-by-step explanation:

The band needs $800 for new uniforms and of that, they only raised $512.

Set up a proportion $\frac{part}{total} = \frac{percentage}{100}$ and plug everything you know in.

$\frac{512}{800}$ = $\frac{x}{100}$

Solve for x by cross multiplying and dividing.

512 × 100 = 51200

51200 ÷ 800 = 64

x = 64

The school band has raised 64% of their goal already.
