2500/25

Answer 2

Answer:  2500/25

Each member pays $100

============================================

Explanation:

The slash symbol means division. It's the same as saying 2500 ÷ 25

The expression 2500/25 simplifies to 100, which means that each member must pay $100. If you had 25 members paying $100 each, then 25*100 = 2500 dollars is the total amount of money paid.

So in short, you divide the total cost over the number of members.
