please help

Just work it out for one person, then multiply by 5 at the end. 0.25, 0.5, 0.75... It's an arithmetic sequence, with a1 = 0.25, d=0.25, n=31. Plug them in: \[\Large S_n =\frac{ n }{ 2 }[2a_1 + (n-1) d]\] Don't forget to multiply the result by 5.
im getting 220 i dont think that is right
372?
Show work and i'll check it
its all written on paper not sure how to get it on here
s31=31/2(.50+(30).25
Looks about right.
is it 372?
Make sure to use parentheses correctly: s31=31/2(.50+(30).25)
i keep getting 44 for that
You're not using your calculator correctly... Type exactly this into google: 31/2*(.50+(30)*.25)
it doesnt show an answer
i typed that exactly in my calculator multiple times and get 44
Then you're doing something wrong: https://www.google.com/search?q=31%2F2*(.50%2B(30)*.25)&rlz=1C1AOHY_enUS708US708&oq=31%2F2*(.50%2B(30)*.25)&aqs=chrome..69i57.416j0j1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
OK so 620?
Yes.
