Three women, Camille, Serena, and Cathy are going to rent an

apartment together. They will each pay an equal share for the
apartment. Cathy needs to figure out what her share will be each
month. She knows that the total each month will be 940 dollars for
rent, 130 dollars for heat and electricity, and 34 dollars for basic
telephone service.

Answer:

Explanation:

Cathy needs to know the total. That means adding each charge together. So, 940+130+34=1104. Each roommate will pay one third of this total cost. So divide by three....

1104/3=368

Cathy will pay $368 each month.
