My 6th grade son has this fraction problem he needs help with. I have to be honest when I say I have always been horrible with Math aside from the basics. Can someone help me to help him?

If a class collects $155 toward a fundraising goal of $775, what fraction represents the class's progress toward its goal?

Here and there I notice almost deliberate birthmark shapes, like almost we were branded at birth. One of my shapes is a perfect triangle with the top mark a little bigger then the bottem two. I have two perfectly round marks the same exact size by my arm.
Some have star constillations with the same star shapes and size.

I got bit on a ranch by a large animal. I don't know if it was a horse or a cow. I thought it was a cow but now some people say "cows don't bite" Anyway i want to start a ranch in Wyoming but I don't want to raise whatever bit me. So I was thinking about penguins as I believe a market might exist selling them to zoos and for food to people and what not. I need to know what it was that bit me at the farm? Also do penguins bite? How much would it cost for a couple of penguin eggs so be shipped to Wyoming? I saw Africa has some penguins so I don't think it will be a problem in Wyoming. Does anyone know what they taste like? I need to order them soon so any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
US Heg
