Answer 2

Answer:

$14.75 per person

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the total amount she paid.

Add up everything she bought: $33 for food, $17 for soft drinks, $3 tax and $6 tip.

food+soft drinks+tax+tip

$33+$17+$3+$6

$59

She paid $59 for the entire lunch.

Now, let's find what she paid person.

To find what she paid per person, divide what she paid by the number of people.

amount paid/number of people

There are 4 people in all, because Mrs. Cats invited three of her friends (Mrs. Cats+3 friends=4 people). We just found out that she paid $59.

$59/4 people

Divide 59 by 4 (59/4=14.75)

$14.75 / person

She paid $14.75 per person.
