Solution
The correct option is A $92
Total money = $9792
Number of people = 100
Amount left at the end is the remainder of total money ÷ number of people
i.e.,
9792 ÷ 100
Dividing a number by 100 gives the last two digits as remainder and the remaining digits as quotient.
Hence,
Quotient = 97
Remainder = 92
∴ Amount left after the donation is $92.
