Question

The running aces card team won $548 playing in poker tournaments last year. the winnings were split evenly among the p players. how much of money did each player receive?

Answer 1

Each player received 548/p dollars.

Answer 2

Each player received 548/p dollars. To find this, simply consider the total amount of money the card team won, which is given as $548. Then consider that that the winnings are being distributed evenly, so each person gets an equal share. Since we are told that there are p players on the team, but not given a specific value for p, all we can do is give the general form of the expression for dividing $548 dollars among p players.
