It will take 14.5 days or 15 days (rounded off)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given that the total money to be raised = $174. Money set aside of their profit = $12. Find number of days taken to raise this money

Number of days that will be taken = 174/12 = 14.5

∴ It will take 15 days (rounded off)
