Jason and 4 friends went bowling. Three friends rented shoes for $2 each. The total cost to rent the shoes and the lane fees was $42. What was the cost of the lane fees for each person?

Answer: 7.20$

Explanation:

Since there are five people over all, and three of them bought shoes for 2$, you would take 2$ Times that by 3 = 6$, now take that 6$ and subtract that by the 42$, leaving you with 36$ left. Take that 36$ and divide it among the 5 people and you get 7.20$ for a lane
