Question

At a restaurant,one table with 5 people has a $21 bill. Another table,with 6 people, has a $25 bill. If each group splits the cost of the bill equally, which table will have a lower cost per person?

Answer 1

Answer: the group with 6 people.

Explanation:

If you divide the first group with 5 people. Divide 21/5= 4.2 per person.

If you divide the second group with 6 people. Divide 25/6= 4.16 repeating.

So the group with 6 people will have a lower cost per person.
