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

3 answers

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

Total prize money won by the group = 1/5 * $4,500
= ($4,500) / 5
= $<<4500/5=900>>900

So, each person in the group won $900.
