Answer 1

Answer: 300 tickets

Explanation:

The drama club wants to raise at least $2,000. They have already received donations of $500 so the amount left till target is:

= 2,000 - 500

= $1,500

Tickets are being sold at $5 so the number of tickets needed to get to $1,500 is:

= 1,500/5

= 300 tickets
