This headline was in a newspaper last year.
Charity Bike Rides
NottPool raises £2 for every £1 raised by ManScot.
Sanjay knows that ManScot raised £150 000 last year.
The total raised last year by the two bike rides was £450 000
(a) Was the newspaper headline correct?
I think yes because 450000 - 150 000 = 300 000
150 x 2 = 300 000
is this working out correct?
This year NottPool raised £200 000 and ManScot raised £50 000
(b) What do you think this year’s newspaper headline will say?
I need help with this, don't know how to figure this second part out?

(a) Yes, though I think the wording could be better.
Money NottPool raised = £450 000 - £150 000 = £300 000
Money NottPool raised according to the headline = 2 x £150 000 = £300 000
(b) It'll be along the same lines as the headline in part (a).
NottPool raises £?? For every £?? Raised by ManScot.
What do you think the "???" are?

NottPool raises £2 for every £1 raised by ManScot.
They said this initially because NottPool raised £300 000 and ManScot raised £150 000.
Does that help?

it says a charity bike ride has three stages.
stage 1 - machester to leeds
stage 2 - leeds to carlisle
stage 3 = carlisle to edinburgh
the distance in km, between the cities are shown below
machester
