Harish's soccer team is trying to raise $5,092 to travel to a tournament in Florida, so they decided to host a pancake breakfast. Each person must pay $38 for the breakfast. How many people need to attend their breakfast in order to raise $5,092?

134 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Data: The soccer team needs to raise $5,092

They are hosting a pancake breakfast to do so and are charging $38 to do so

The number of people they need to attend their breakfast for the money to be raised: $x

Step one, make the equation

$38x=$5,092

Reason: Since we know that the number of people(x) times $38 will equal $5,092 so to put it into an equation will make it easier to solve.

Step two, Isolate x by dividing by 38 on both sides

$38x/38=$5,092/38=x=134

Reason: Since you are trying to find the number of people(x) you have to isolate it. the way to do that is by getting rid of the 38 next to it and by dividing, you cancel out the multplication and get rid of the 38. However, since what you do to one side you do to the other, you divide 5,092 by 38 to get the answer of 134.
