A group of students raised money to distribute to four local food banks. The group meets to divide up the money they raised. They give 1/4 of the money to a shelter for women and families. After that, they give 1/3 of what's left to Tent City. Then they give 3/4 of the remaining funds to Youth Care. Finally, they give what's leftover, $325, to the Husky Foodbank. How much money did they originally raise? Your job: Answer how much money they originally raised using at least one mathematical representation (diagram, equation, numbers & symbols, etc.). Explain your solution completely and make connections between the problem and your representation using color and labels. We should be able to see where each organization's money is in the representation. A group of students raised money to distribute to four local food banks.
