AV needs to raise 700 dollars for their field trip. They have already raised 315 dollars by selling cookies in the Library. If there are 2 weeks (schol days only) to raise their remaining money how much money will need to be made daily
(700 - 315) / 10 = $________ per day
38.5?
Right.
To calculate how much money needs to be made daily, we need to find the remaining amount of money that AV needs to raise.
The remaining amount of money needed can be calculated by subtracting the amount of money they have already raised from the total amount needed. In this case, AV needs to raise a total of 700 dollars and has already raised 315 dollars.
Remaining amount of money needed = Total amount needed - Amount already raised
Remaining amount of money needed = 700 - 315 = 385 dollars
Now, we need to find out how many school days are in the two-week period. Assuming a 5-day school week, two weeks would consist of 10 school days.
Next, we divide the remaining amount of money needed by the number of school days to find out how much money needs to be made daily.
Amount of money needed daily = Remaining amount of money needed / Number of school days
Amount of money needed daily = 385 / 10 = 38.5 dollars
Therefore, AV needs to make approximately 38.5 dollars daily to reach their goal of 700 dollars in two weeks (10 school days).
