Question

A class is organizing a going away party for one of their students. They spend $26.38 on decorations, $78.92 on food, and $34.50 on a gift. If there are 15 students in the class who agreed to split the cost evenly, then how much does each person owe?

Answer 1

Answer:

$9.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply start by adding up the total cost of each item.

$26.38 + $78.92 + $34.50

= $140.25

The total is $140.25

If 15 students want to split the cost, you’ll need to divide it by 15.

$140.25 divided by 15 = $9.35

So the total for each student is $9.35
