Question

​The county soccer club spent $1680 for soccer camp expenses. This amount is 12% of the money it collected. What is the total amount of money that the club collected?

Answer 1

Answer:

Proportion states that the two fractions or ratios are equal.

Let x represents the total amount of money that the club collected.

As per the statement:

The county soccer club spent $1680 for soccer camp expenses.

Then,

by definition of Proportion:

$\frac{12}{100} = \frac{1680}{x}$

By cross multiply, we get;

$12x = 168000$

Divide both sides by 12 we get;

$x = 14000$

Therefore, the total amount of money that the club collected is, $14000
