Answer:

Six friends ate in a restaurant together and split the total cost c equally. Each person paid less than $8, the statement that best describes it is:


(c)/(6)<8\rightarrow(1)

Therefore (1) points to the first option, which is the answer, and rearranging (1) gives the following:


\begin{gathered} (c)/(6)\lt8\operatorname{\rightarrow}c<48 \\ \\ c<48\rightarrow(2) \end{gathered}

The inequality (2) implies that the total cost of the food is less than $48.
