A group if 9 people won 1/5 of a 4,500 prize. How much money did each person in the group win

1 answer

To find out how much money each person in the group won, we need to calculate the amount of money won by the group first.

The group won 1/5 of the $4,500 prize, which is (1/5) * $4,500 = $<<1/5*4500=900>>900.

Now, we divide this amount by the number of people in the group to find out how much each person won: $900 / 9 people = $<<900/9=100>>100.

Each person in the group won $100.
