Travis, Jessica, and Robin are collecting donations for the school band. Travis wants to collect 20% more than Jessica, and Robin wants to collect 35% more than Travis.

If the students meet their goals and Travis collects $43, how much money did they collect
in all?

their total collected is $135.45

Step-by-step explanation:

travis collect 20% more than Jessica

if travis collect $43 then

20% of 43

43 × 20 ÷ 100 = $8.6

Jessica collected $8.6 less than travis

$43 - $8.6 = $34.4

and Robin collect 35% more than travis

35% of 43

43 × 35 ÷ 100 = $15.05

therefore Robin collect $15.05 more than travis

$43 + $15.05 = $58.05

their total collected

Jessica collected $34.4

robin collected $58.05

travis collected $43

total

$34.4 + $58.05 + $43 = $135.45
