All we need to do is divide $1,548 by 18

Answer 2

For this case we have the following variables:

x: total amount collected

y: number of groups

The relationship between the variables is given by:

`n = (x)/(y)`

Substituting values we have:

`n = (1548)/(18)`

Making the corresponding calculation:

`n = 86`

Answer:

each group will get about:

D. $86
