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.
I think you divide 5/9 divided by 2/3. 5/9 divided by 2/3=4/3 simplified=2/3. Just know I'm terrible at math so this could be like totally off the hook crazy and wrong.
