Sherita’s club is selling grapefruit to raise money. for every box they sell, they get $1.35 profit. they have sold 84 boxes already. how many more boxes must they sell to raise 270 dollars

For every box of Grapefruit they sell they get $1.35 - they sold 84 boxes

84 * 1.35 =113.4
270 - 113.4 = 156.6
156 ÷ 1.35 = 116

They need to sell 116 more boxes of grapefruit to raise 270 dollars

When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour, they are called unit rates. if you have a multiple-unit rate such as 120 students for every 3 buses, and want to find the single-unit rate, write a ratio equal to the multiple-unit rate with 1 as the second term.
