Total cost = $98.60
Cost paid by each person = $98.60/5
= $19.72
Therefore each person paid $19.72

Answer: $24.65

Explanation:

Hi, the solution can be obtained by a simple basic operation called division.

Division is splitting into equal parts or groups.

It is the result of "fair sharing". We use the ÷ symbol, or sometimes the / symbol to mean divide.

In this case : $98.60 ÷ 4 = $24.65

So, each person paid $24.65 for the dinner.
