Question

Two people earn $140 for working at an after-school program. If they divided this amount up equally, how much will each person receive?

Answer 1

Answer: $70

Explanation:

The earnings in total are $140 and there are two people. You divide the total amount of dollars by the total amount of people. Hence, 140/2 = 70. So each person receives $70.

Answer 2

140 / 2 = 70$ per person.
