Question

Keith designs a game in which players work together to run a food truck business.

During one game, the business loses $261. The four players share the loss equally.
Write and solve an equation to represent the change in profit for each player.

Answer 1

Change in profit per member = - 65.25

Explanation:

Given that :

Number of members involved in business = 4

Amount lost = $261

If loss is shared equally :

Loss per member = amount lost / number of members

Loss per member = $261 / 4

Loss per member = $65.25

Change in profit per member = - $65.25
