Answer:
47 million dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
A charity received a donation of 17.9 million. If this represents 38% of the charity's donated funds, what is the total amount of its donated funds. Round your answer to the nearest million dollars.
First, let's set the total funds as x.
If 38% of x is 17.9 million dollars, we can write this equation.
38% * x = 17.9 million.
Simplify.
0.38 * x = 17.9 million
Divide both sides by 0.38.
x = 47.105 million
Round to nearest million
x = 47 million dollars
So, the total amount is 47 million
