To find out how much money each person in the group won, we first need to calculate the total amount of the prize that the group won.
-
Calculate 1/5 of the $4,500 prize: \[ \frac{1}{5} \times 4500 = \frac{4500}{5} = 900 \]
-
Next, we need to divide this amount by the number of people in the group (9) to find out how much each person won: \[ \frac{900}{9} = 100 \]
Therefore, each person in the group won $100.
