A group of 3 friends went to the movies. Total cost of tickets was $18.25. pop corn was $15.50. Drinks were $5.25. The friends agree to split the cost evenly. How much will each friend pay?

Answer:

13

Explanation:

Get the total price by adding all the prices (total 39) and divide by all the friends (3) and you get 13 dollars

Hi!

First, let's add everything together to make it easier.

$15.50+$5.25=$20.75. add $18.25 and you have $39 even.

$39 divided by 3 is $13.

So each would pay exactly $13.

Hope this helps!
