1/8 of a sum of prize money was divided equally among 4 individual players.
The remainder was divided among 14 group players. If each group player
received $20, how much money did each individual player receive?
The remainder of the money is 14*20 = $280.
This is also equal to 7/8 of the prize money. If 280 is 7/8, and we must find 1/8, we divide 280/7 = 40.
Each individual player received $10.
Let sum of prize money be $p.
--> 1/8P is divided equally for 4 individual player
So, 7P/8 is divided to group player
7P/8 * 1/4 = 20
P = 20 * 2 * 8
P = $320
1/8P = 320/8 = $40
Now, we have to divide $40 equally among 4
individual player
* 40/4 = $10 each
Individual player receive $10 each.
