Final answer:

Without additional information about Peter's activities, we cannot accurately answer which option represents the amount Peter made per turn. Typically, we would need to know the total net gains or losses and the number of turns to calculate the average earning or losing amount per turn.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the actual amount Peter made per turn, we will need specific information about the rules or circumstances of the game, or an activity he was engaged in which involves earning or losing money. Usually, such a question would be accompanied by additional context, such as:

  • The amount of money Peter started with.
  • The number of turns he takes.
  • The gains or losses per turn.

Only with such information can we calculate the average money made or lost per turn. However, without the necessary details, we cannot accurately determine which of the provided answer options is correct.

If we had the complete information, the process to calculate the earnings per turn would involve adding all the gains, subtracting any losses, and then dividing the net amount by the number of turns. Here's an example:

  • Peter starts with $20.
  • After 5 turns, he ends up with $15.
  • This means Peter has lost $5 over 5 turns.
  • To find the average loss per turn, we divide the total loss by the number of turns: $5 / 5 turns = $1 per turn.

This is just an illustration; we would apply a similar method to calculate the actual amount based on the details of Peter's situation.
