Answer:

Each person will pay $9.78

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount of bill = $34

Tip = 15%

Amount of tip = $\frac{15}{100}*34$

Amount of tip = 0.15 * 34

Amount of tip = $5.10

Amount after bill = 34 + 5.10 = $39.10

Number of people = William + three friends = 4

Per person share = $\frac{39.10}{4}$

Per person share = $9.775

Rounded to two decimal places

Per person share = $9.78

Hence,

Each person will pay $9.78
