Solution

Total money taken from student $= 500 \times (28 + 45) = 36500$

Total money spent $= 9855 + 3285 + 5432 + 8730 + 6132$

Since total money left in excess after all expenses $= R s . 3066$ and

Total number of students $= 73$

Hence the refund each student will get

$= \frac{3066}{73} = R s . 42$
