Question

Each of four friends-Jennifer, Rebecca, Derek, and

Matthew-had the goal of raising $50. How much
money did each person raise? Show or explain your
answer
a. Jennifer raised 50% of her goal.
b. Rebecca raised 100% of her goal.
c. Derek raised 75% of his goal.
d. Matthew raised 150% of his goal.

Answer 1

Jennifer raised $25

Rebecca raised £50

Derek raised $37.50

Matthew raised $75

Explanation:

J: 50% = dividing by 2, 50/2= 25

R: 50 is 100%, because that was the total

D: 75% = dividing by 4, timsing by three, so 50/4 is 12.5 x 3 is 37.5, put it into currency $37.50

M: We add another 25% onto 50 so 25+50=75.

(hope this works!!)
