Rachel is collecting donations for the local animal shelter. So far she has collected $245 which is 70% of what she hopes to collect. How much money does Rachel plan to collect for the shelter?

Answer

She plans to collect 350 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing that 245 dollars is equal to only 70% of what Rachel hopes to collect, the equation:

70% * x = 245

where x = money she plans to collect in total, is applicable,

Solving:

70/100 * x = 245,

7/10 * x =245,

7x/10 = 245,

7x = 2450,

x = 350 dollars
