Question

The meal costs $52.95 for 5 people. Jenna ordered a dessert for $2.50. If Jenna deducts this amount from the total, how much will each of the other people pay for their meal?

Answer 1

Answer: $12.61

Explanation:

Given : Total cost of meal for 5 people = $52.95

Jenna ordered a dessert for $2.50.

Total cost other 4 need to pay = $ (52.95- 2.50) = $ 50.45

Now , each person will pay
`=\$(50.45)/(4)\approx \$12.61`

Hence, each of the other person need to pay $12.61 .
