team member be responsible for contributing?
A. $26.23
C. $41.79
B. $15.56
D. $57.34

Answer 1

A
1) Subtract what they already have from what they need
835.72-311.12=524.6
2)Then divide what’s remaining by the number of people.
524.6/20
3) Then round to the hundredths place because it’s money and your answer is 26.23.
