Taharka, Lamari and Keyon are sharing the cost of a football. Taharka will pay 0.15 of the cost. Lamari

will pay 12 of the cost. Keyon will pay the rest. If the football costs $16, how much will they each pay?

Answer:

the answer should be 3.85 that they pay each

Explanation:

Because if you add 12.15 (Taharka + Lamari) and 3.85, it equals 16. The 3.85 comes from 16.00 - 12.15
