Question

A pool of money was collected among five friends each of which contributed $1.7 . You joined as the sixth member and contributed $15.2 . What percent of the total pool did you contribute?

Answer 1

"64.14%" is the percentage of the total pool did you contribute

According to the question,

→ The total five friend money will be:

= $5\times 1.7$

= $8.5$

Only sixth member is "$15.2".

then,

→ The total six friends money will be:

= $8.5+15.2$

= $23.7$

hence,

→ The percentage will be:

= $\frac{15.2}{23.7}\times 100$

= $0.64136\times 100$

= $64.136$

or,

= $64.14$ %
