Yes, to determine how much each person should contribute, you need to divide the total cost of the gift by the number of people attending the reunion. In this case, you would divide $464.72 by 37. Let me calculate it for you.
$464.72 / 37 = $12.56
So, each person should contribute approximately $12.56 to cover the cost of the gift for the grandparents.
