Question

You have $135 and you want to give the money to 5 of your friends. You want each friend to have the same amount of money. How much money will you give each of your friends?

Answer 1

Given:

Total amount = $135

Total friends = 5

Each friend to have the same amount of money.

To find:

The money you will give each of your friends.

Solution:

We know that,

$\text{Money for each friend}=\dfrac{\text{Total money}}{\text{Total number of friends}}$

Substituting the given values, we get

$\text{Money for each friend}=\dfrac{135}{5}$

$\text{Money for each friend}=27$

Therefore, each friend will get $27.
