Toys for Tots collected 100 toys on Saturday. If this was 80% of the goal the set to collect over the weekend, what was their goal?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Their goal was to collect 125 toys.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{100 toys}{80  percent}[/tex]

=

[tex]\frac{125 toys}{100percent}[/tex]


Whatever you do to one side you must do to another. To get from 80 to 100% of your goal, you must multiply 80 by 1.25 . Because we did this to one side, we had to do it to the other. 100 toys multiplied by 1.25 is 125 toys.
