Answer:1 tour guide collects $16

Step-by-step explanation:

The tour bus to a national park holds 56 people. There are 7 tour guides at the park to lead equal groups of people from the bus. Since the groups are equal, the number of people in each group will be

56/7 = 8 people

If each person in a group pays a $2 entrance fee to a tour guide, it means that the total amount of money that each group pays to the tour guide is

2*8 = $16
