A cheer squad of 8 cheerleaders raised $317.30. They need $622.42 to pay for the Homecoming dance. If each cheerleader raises the same
amount, how much more does each cheerleader need to raise?

Each cheerleader needs to raise 38.14 more

Step-by-step explanation:

They each need to raise $38.14.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, I started off by subtracting 317.30 from 622.42.

(622.42-317.30) This gave us 305.12.

I did this, because we are trying to find the amount of money the cheerleaders have left to make.

Next, we will divide the difference of this equation (305.12) by 8.

We did this because there are 8 cheerleaders, and they all made the same amount of money.

This leaves us with an answer of:

Each cheerleader has exactly $38.14 left to make.

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !

3100
