A contractor bought 94 boxes of nails at a price of $1 per box. Each box contained 54 nails. If he distributed the nails to the 9 houses he was building and made sure each house received the same number of nails, how many nails would each house get?

There are \(94 \times 54 = 5076 \) nails. 


He then distributes the \(5076\) nails among \(9\) houses. 

 

Thus, each house receives \(5076 \div 9 = \color{brown}\boxed{564}\)
