Answer 1

To find out how many bags of chips the school soccer team needs to sell to raise $1,000.00 at $2.50 per bag, you can use the following calculation:

1. Divide the total amount to raise ($1,000.00) by the price per bag ($2.50):

\[ \text{Number of bags} = \frac{\text{Total Amount}}{\text{Price per bag}} = \frac{1000}{2.50} = 400 \]

So, the school soccer team would need to sell 400 bags of chips to raise $1,000.00.

The correct response is: 400 bags.
