Question

Rachel and four friends were going to the movies. Each ticket cost $11 and then they bought 2 popcorns at $3.75 each, and they each bought their own soda at $2.75 each. How much money did they spend total for their trip to the movies? If they decide to split the bill, how much will they each pay?

Answer 1

Answer:

Total amount spent $=\ 73.5$

If they decide to split the bill, amount paid by each of the person  $=\ 15.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of each movie ticket = $11

Cost of 5 tickets = 5(11)= 55

Cost of each packet of popcorns = $3.75

Cost of two packets of popcorns = $2(3.75) = $7.5

Cost of each soda = $2.75

Cost of five sodas = $5(2.75) = $13.75

Total number of persons (Rachel and four friends) = 5

Total amount spent $=11(5)+2(3.75)+5(2.75)=55+7.5+13.75=\ 76.25$

If they decide to split the bill, amount paid by each of the person = $\frac{76.25}{5}=\ 15.25$
