Answer 1

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

Total amount to raise / Price per bag = Number of bags needed

So,

\[ \text{Number of bags} = \frac{1000}{2.50} = 400 \]

Therefore, they need to sell 400 bags to raise $1,000.00.

The correct response is 400 bags.
