The reed high school basketball program earned $7,115.03 in profits over the current season.  based on game attendance, it is determined that the girls' basketball team will receive 7% of the profits, while the boys' basketball team will receive 11% of the profits.  which is the best estimate of how much more the boys' team will receive in profits than the girls' team?
  a. 
$770
  b. 
$490
  c. 
$280
  d. 
$1,260

c. $280

Step-by-step explanation:

first you times the total profits by the percent that the girls get then the percent the boys get to find out how much of the profit the girls and boys basketball teams each get, then you subtract the profits the boys get by the profits the girls get to find out how much more the boys get than the girls.

7,115.03 x .07 = 498.0521

7,115.03 x .11 = 782.6533

782.6533 - 498.0521 = 284.6012

the boys receive 284.6012 more in profits than the girls

so c. $280 would be the best estimate of how much more the boys team will receive

126 maybe. sorry
