Answer:


Each\ Grade = \$915

Explanation:

Given


Total = \$5492


Grades = 6 i.e. 1 to 6

Required

Determine the amount raised by each grade

From the question, we understand that each grade raised the same amount.

This implies that.


Each\ Grade = (Total)/(Grades)


Each\ Grade = (\$5492)/(6)


Each\ Grade = \$915.33333333


Each\ Grade = \$915 (approximated)
