What is the total consumer surplus


Please assist me with the given microeconomics problem for the assignment:

Task: There are six potential consumers of computer games, each willing to buy only one game. Consumer 1 is willing to pay $40 for a computer game, consumer 2 is willing to pay $35, consumer 3 is willing to pay $30, consumer 4 is willing pay $25, consumer 5 is willing to pay $20, and consumer 6 is willing to pay $15.

1. Suppose the market price is $29. What is the total consumer surplus?
