Answer:

Each person pays $5.96

Explanation:

First, find the equation. Multiply 8 by 2 to get the cost of 2 large pizzas, which is $16. Multiply 5 by 1.50 to get the cost of 5 small drinks, which is $7.50. Add up all the numbers including tip; 16+7.5+6.3= $29.80. Now, divide the total cost, 29.80, by 5 to get the amount each person pays. So, each person pays $5.96.
