Question

Taylor plans on raising a total of $3000 for Relay for Life for her school. His goal is to raise 1/3 of that money by the end of the month. Unfortunately, Taylor was only able to raise 1/5 of his goal for the month. How much money did Taylor actually raise?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\ 600$

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount raised for relay for life = $3000

Although goal is to raise $\frac{1}{3}$ of the total amount by the end of the month. But unfortunately, Taylor was only able to raise 1/5 of his goal for the month.

Therefore,

Ratio of amount raised for the month $=\frac{1}{5}$ of the goal.

So,

amount raised for the month $=\frac{1}{5} (3000)=\ 600$
