For their gift giving project, the student government was able to solicit P 2,356.00 worth of grocery items. If P 2,090 of the amount solicited was distributed to one barangay and still wants to distribute P 1 ,205.00 worth of grocery items to another barangay, how much more should be solicited?
Answer:
P 2, 356.00(amount of solicited)- P 2,090( amount distributed)
= P 266
1, 205.00(worth of grocery items to another barangay) – P 266
= P 1,179.00 is the amount of money needed
