after recent tornado 3 1/4 times as many donations car in than were needed.if 16,250 donations came in how many were needed
Answer provided by our tutors
we assume the phrase "as many donations car in than" should be "as many donations came in than"
3 1/4 = 3.25
let 'x' represent the number of donations needed, then
16250 = 3.25 x
x = 16250 / 3.25 = 5000
5,000 donations were needed
