Apologies for the confusion.

To find out how much each person won, we need to divide the prize amount by the number of people in the group.

1/5 of $4,500 is $4,500 * (1/5) = $<<4500*(1/5)=900>>900.

So, the group of 9 people won a total of $900. To find out how much each person won, we divide the total amount by the number of people: $900 / 9 = $<<900/9=100>>100.

Therefore, each person in the group won $100.
