Answer 2

Here is the answer. Given that there are four artists and they will be splitting the profits equally, first, let us deduct $150 from the total income because this is the amount spent on their supplies. So the final amount is $720. Next, divide 720 by 4 and the final answer would be $180. So each of them gets $180. Hope this helps.
