Question

Grades 1 through 6 at Eastwood Elementary School raised $5,492 towards repairs for the gymnasium floor.

How much did each grade raise if they each collected about the same amount of money? Choose the best estimate.

A. About $1,100
B. About $900
C. About $550
D. About $500

Answer 1

B. $900 So if they raised $5,492 and there are 6 grades that raised about the same amount money to make that $5,492 then you would do $5,492 divided by 6 which will get you 915 so if you estimate that it would be about $900
