use the same method, different numbers.
To divide seven dollars among ten friends, you can follow these steps:
1. Start by dividing the total amount of money, which is seven dollars, by the number of friends, which is ten: 7 / 10 = 0.7.
2. Each friend will receive 0.7 dollars.
However, since money cannot be divided into decimals of a cent, you will need to decide how to handle the remaining amount. Here are two common options:
Option 1: Distribute the remaining amount evenly among the friends.
- Calculate the remaining amount by subtracting the product of the currency value and the number of friends: (0.7 * 10) - 7 = 0.
- Since there's no remaining amount, everyone will receive 0.7 dollars.
Option 2: Give the remaining amount to one or a few friends.
- Calculate the remaining amount by subtracting the product of the currency value and the number of friends: (0.7 * 10) - 7 = 0.
- In this case, there is no remaining amount to be distributed unevenly.
So, depending on the option chosen, each friend will receive either 0.7 dollars, or if the remaining amount is distributed unevenly, some friends will receive 0.7 dollars while others will receive nothing.
