Respuesta :

They have raised $1,750 so far. 70% of $2,500 is $1,750, because if you do 2,500 x 0.70, you get 1,750z

If you want to set up a porportion it would look like this:

X 70
——— = ——
2500 100

Then you cross multiply:

100x = 175000

Then divide by 100:

100x = 175000
——- ————-
100 100

x=1750

So your answer would be 1750.
