$72.50 x 1.0675 = $77.39

$77.39 x 1.15 = $88.99

$88.99 / 3 = $29.66

Each person should pay $29.66

Answer:

$29.67

Step-by-step explanation:

first you would fin out how much the total would be with the sales tax( which is equal to $4.89) added to the initial cost which should add up to $77.39

the 15% tip would add $11.61 to the $77.39

divide 89 by 3 which should give you 29.67
