Question

All the chickens decide to hold a surprise party for their owner. The total expense of the party is $\$22.55$. If 10 chickens share the cost equally among themselves, each chicken would have to pay $.

Answer 1

The total expense of the party $\$22.55$ would be equally distributed among 10 chickens.

$\therefore$ The amount of money each chicken would have to pay $=\$\frac{22.55}{10}$

In denominator of the fraction, power of 10 is 1 so, decimal point in numerator of the fraction would shift by one unit to the left.

$\$\frac{22.55}{10}=\$2.255$
