Final answer:
By calculating the combined total from all the amounts listed, and deducting the share for the sister who isn't feeling well, we derive that the other four sisters will have a total of $1430.00 to spend. This is achieved by dividing the initial total by five to find each sister's share and then multiplying by four since one sister will not be using her share.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question requires us to determine how much money the other four sisters have to spend if one of them decides not to use her share. To solve this, we first need to calculate the total amount of money available by adding the provided totals.
- Total 1: $56.75
- Total 2: $43.25
- Total 3: $65.00
- Total 4: $25.50
- Total 5: $18.75
- Total 6: $59.00
- Total 7: $21.50
- Total 8: $44.50
- Total 9: $12.50
- Total 10: $43.00
- Total 11: $89.50
- Total 12: $99.35
- Total 13: $235.75
- Total 14: $300.50
- Total 15: $678.25
The cumulative total is $1787.50. Since the sister who isn't feeling well has decided to not use her share, the total available for the remaining sisters is divided by four instead of five.
The amount each sister initially had is calculated by dividing the total amount by five, which results in $357.50 per sister. With one sister not spending her share, the cumulative total for the other four sisters is increased by her share. Therefore, the new total spendable by the four sisters is $1430.00 (which is the initial total minus one share of $357.50).
They can each spend $357.50, totaling $1430.00. The answer to the question is thus $1430.00, not accounting for the offerings that were listed as it seems to be a partial context provided.
