Answer 2

Answer:

$Contribution \: of \: the \: boy =Rs \:42.90$

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of boys = 16

Total Bill Amount = Rs 114.50

$Each\: boy's contribution\\= \frac{Total \:bill}{Number\:of \: boys }\\= \frac{114.50}{16}\\=Rs\:7.15$

$Contribution \: of \: a \: boy \\= His \: contribution + 5 \: boys \: contribution\\=7.15+5\times 7.15\\=7.15 (1+5)\\=7.15\times 6\\=Rs \:42.90$

Therefore,

$Contribution \: of \: the \: boy =Rs \:42.90$
