Answer :
Answer:
$6.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Abilene and her 4 friends want to share the cost of a meal equally.
They order 2 large pizzas and 5 small drinks.
They leave a tip of $5.50
Menu says
Cost of large pizza = $10.00
Cost of small drink = $1.50
Question asked:
How much does each person pay?
Solution:
Cost of 1 large pizza = $10.00
Cost of 2 large pizzas = $10.00 [tex]\times[/tex] 2 = $20.00
Cost of 1 small drink = $1.50
Cost of 5 small drinks = $1.50 [tex]\times[/tex] 5 = $7.5
Total cost of meal = Cost of 2 large pizzas + Cost of 5 small drinks + Tip
= $20.00 + $7.5 + $5.50
= $33
As cost of meal will be shared equally among five persons:-
Each person paid = Total cost of meal [tex]\div[/tex] 5
= $33 [tex]\div[/tex] 5
= $6.6
Thus, each person paid $6.6
