Divide the tax and the tip from the number a
of people and add the cost of pizza and a drink that should help!
Please let me know if this helps!

Answer:

Each of them spent $9.35 on meal.

Explanation:

Jacob and his three friends ordered an individual pizza and a drink for $6.19.

Total cost of pizza and drink = 6.19 × 4

= $24.76

They also ordered bread sticks for $4.25

Tax on the bill was = $2.39

Tip amount was = $1.50×4 = $6.0

So the total billed amount will be = 24.76 + 4.25 + 2.39 + 6

= $37.4

Since there were four persons including Jacob.

Therefore, each person spend on meal =
(37.40)/(4)

= $9.35
