The members that would reach the goal are members b and d.

In order to determine which individual would reach their goal, the total amount they would have saved at the end of the  5 weeks have to be determined.

Total earnings of Member A:

Weekly earnings = $6.15 x 8 = $49.20

Earnings in 5 weeks = $49.20 x 5 = $246

Total earnings of Member B:

Weekly earnings = $5.85 x 10 = $58.50

Earnings in 5 weeks = $58.50 X 5 = $292.50

Total earnings of Member C:

Weekly earnings = $7.25 x 7 = $50.75

Earnings in 5 weeks = $50.75 X 5 = $253.75

Total earnings of Member D:

Weekly earnings = $6.35 X 9 = $57.15

Earnings in 5 weeks = $57.15 x 5 = $285.75

Only Members B and D earn more than $285.
