Question

An organization has raised $4800 for a remodeling project. This is 60% of their goal. What is their fundraising goal?

Answer 1

Answer:

$8000

Step-by-step explanation:

4800 ÷ 6 = 800

800 × 10 = 8000

so answer $8000

Answer 2

Given,

Total money raised =  $4800

$4800 is 60% of their goal.

To Find,

The fundraising goal of the organization =?

Solution,

Let the fundraising goal of the organization be x

Total money raised =  $4800

According to the question, the total money raised was 60% of  their fundraising goal. That means  $4800 is 60% of x

$4800 = 60% of x

(60/100) * x =  $4800

(6/10) *x =  $4800

x = 10 * ( 4800 / 6)

x =  800* 10

x = $8000

Hence, the fundraising goal of the organization is $8000.
