During a charity event, a group raises $1.62 million in one night. If there were 790 people in attendance, what isaverage money per capita that was donated? Use your answer in a sentence.

Respuesta :

We have that during the event the group raised:

[tex]1.62\cdot1000000=1620000[/tex]

Or $1,620,000.

There were 790 people that night.

Therefore, we have:

[tex]\frac{1620000}{790}=2050.63[/tex]

Then, we have that it was raised, on average, about $2050.63 per person during the charity event.

[We assume here that the average money per capita is the total raised money divided by the total people that attended the charity event.]
