Question

Three friends attended a game together.

The cost of one ticket was $50.
The cost of parking, p, was shared equally.

Write an expression to represent the dollar amount it cost each friend to attend the game?

Answer 1

The expression would be 3(50+p)

Answer 2

50+p/3

Explanation:

Each friend has a 50 flat fee = 50

Parking is divided between 3 people so each person pays 1/3 of the parking fee

if p = price of parking 50 + p/3
