you plus 8

Answer 2

26.55

Explanation:

Take 177 and multiply that to .20(20%) because you change that percentage into a decimal by changing the sign to a decimal and always moving it over two places and should get 35.4 and then add that to $177. After you add it, you should get $212.40 and then divide that between the eight of them and get 26.55.
