Marshall is selling raffle tickets to raise money. he wants to raise $1000. he already has $200 in donations, and each ticket will raise $2.how many tickets must marshall sell to reach his goal?

Answer 1

He needs to raise $1000 - $200 more = $800
To find the number of tickets we can do the amount needed divided by the price of 1 ticket.
$800 / $2 = 400 tickets

He needs to sell 400 tickets.
