Granted that "each" is not a name of a person since it is not capitalised, I assume that each men took 1 orange, gave 9 to you and ate only 1.

They were passing in sequence, taking an orange and putting another one in its place, except the last guy?

Hmmm.. I wonder what happened... (???)
Those 10 men divided the whole 1 orange into ten.
Because inside it is divided into 10 slices.
So they took one slice each.
lol
