Calvary Church’s building fund contains $3.2 million which is 60% of the amount needed for the project. What is the total amount needed for the project? Round to the nearest tenth of a million

1. Let \( x \) be the total amount needed for the project.

2. Given that 60% of \( x \) is $3.2$ million, we have the equation:

0.60x = 3.2

3. Solve for \( x \) by dividing both sides by 0.60:

x = \frac{3.2}{0.60}

4. Calculate \( x \):

x = 5.3333 \ldots

5. Round to the nearest tenth:

x \approx 5.3 million.

6. Therefore, the total amount needed is, 5.3 million.
