Answer 1

40

Explanation:

First subtract the 40 coupon from the equation since it says they use it before paying. Since they all pay the same amount, use x in this case, simply divide 160 by 4, which is 40 for each person. And to double check the answer, multiply 40 by 4, to make sure each person pays the same, then add the 40 dollar coupon, and the answer should be $200. Or, you can think of it as 40x+40(Coupon)=200. Or 200-40=40x.

Answer 2

$40.00

Explanation:

the total is 200 so then u subtract the $40 from the coupon which will leave u with 160. Since there is 4 people 160/4 equals 40. Therefore your answer is each person pays $40.00
