The school band has 115 members. They are raising money for band camp. If each member raises $75, what is the total amount of money raised for band camp.

Question

$8,625
$7,750
$8,605
$8,305

Answer 1

To calculate the total amount of money raised by the school band, you can multiply the number of members by the amount each member raises:

\[ \text{Total Amount Raised} = \text{Number of Members} \times \text{Amount Raised per Member} \]

Substituting the values:

\[ \text{Total Amount Raised} = 115 \times 75 \]

Now, performing the multiplication:

\[ 115 \times 75 = 8625 \]

So the total amount of money raised for band camp is $8,625.
