Answer: $1.60 per person

Step-by-step explanation: Since i did this before i am pretty sure you meant $8 for the question. The equation says Eric and four of his friends meaning it's five-person in total. You write out the equation 8 ÷ 5 = ?. Now you solve the equation 8 ÷ 5 which equals 1.60. Now you're done! :D

(Hope this helped <3)
