Answer: $5

Step-by-step explanation:

For every $3 raised by basketball players, football players would raise $2.50.

If basketball players raised $6 therefore, we can use direct proportion to find out what football players raised:

3      :        2.50

6      :           x

Cross multiply:

3x = 15

x = 15 / 3

x = 5

Football players raised $5.
