Question

help me passage below

Answer 1

The golf club needs to raise $2,620.00 for a trip to play golf at Augusta Country Club. They are selling boxes of personalized golf balls for $25.00 per box. They have already raised $1,225.00 from the fundraiser.
The percussion club needs to raise $2,400.00 to pay for a trip to the state capital to participate in a parade. They are selling 3-gallon tubs of caramel popcorn for $18.25 each. They have already raised $1,314.00 from the fundraiser.
If both clubs are going to meet their goals, from this point on the---- club needs to sell --- more items from their fundraiser than the--- club needs to sell from their fundraiser.

Answer 2

the \(\bf\text{golf club}\) needs to raise \($2620\) and they already have \($1225\)

so they need to raise \($2620-1225=$1395\)
each ball is \($25\), so they need to sell \(25x=1395\\x=55.8\)

if u r allowed to round then approximately \(60\) boxes,

try the same method with the other club.
