Question

Answer the following problem using the SOLVE Method Math Club members are selling Math club members are selling Pi Day T-shirts for $7.50 each. The goal is to raise $500 by Friday. The figure below shows how much they have raised by Wednesday. What is the minimum number of T-shirts they must still sell in order to reach their goal? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

The minimum number of T-shirt that they must sell to raise $500 is 67 T-shirts

Let x represent the number of Pi Day T-shirts sold.

They are selling Pi Day T-shirts for $7.50 each, So to raise $500:

7.5x > 500

Dividing through by 7.5:

7.5x / 7.5 > 500 / 7.5

x > 66.7

Hence, the minimum number of T-shirt that they must sell to raise $500 is 67 T-shirts
