Building a Community Playground: Calculating Donation Amount

How to calculate how much each donor should contribute?

If 25 people donate $135 each, and there is a total of $3375, how much should each of the 45 donors contribute?

Answer: $75.00

To calculate how much each donor should contribute, we first need to determine the total amount collected from the initial donations. In this case, with 25 people donating $135 each, the total amount collected would be $3375.

Now, to find out how much each of the 45 donors should contribute, we simply divide the total amount by the number of donors:

$3375 / 45 = $75.00

Therefore, each of the 45 donors should contribute $75.00 to reach the total goal of building the community playground.
