At a local shelter, 36 people volunteered to prepare meals for disaster victims. if this represented 9/16 of the volunteers at the shelter, write and solve an equation to determine how many volunteers at the local shelter.

 ((36/9)*7)+36=64
36 volunteers making meals divided by the ratio of volunteers that are making meals (9) multiplied by the ratio of people not making meals (7) plus the 36 people making meals to get the total amount of people (64).

The answer is c because you turn 17.5% into a decimal which gives you .175 then you times that by $361.35 which gives you 63.23625 but then you round that which gives you 63.24. then you at 63.24 pulse 361.35 and you round it which gives you $425

Iwould think that the correct answer is 8.1
