5000 is donated to a poor family. In the family, there are seven members - father, mother, and five children. Father and mother together took half of the money and the rest is shared equally among the five children. Find the share of each child.

Answer: $500

Step-by-step explanation:

2 family members (mom and dad) took half of 5000.

5000/2=2500

So, father and mother took 2500 in total.

To find the remaining money shared between the 5 kids, all you have to do is divide 2500 into 5!

2500/5=500

So, each kid equally got $500.

Hope this helps :)
