Mark and John were sharing the $10 cost to rent some video games with another friend. Mark paid $3, John paid of the total, and their friend paid the rest.

Who paid the most towards the rental?

I don't need the answer I just need to have the problem written out. Yes I have tried but I just can't figure how to write it out. Thanks a trillion!! I will give out a medal to the best answer.

Total cost is $10.
You have 3 people who are contributing money to the cost.

a + b + c = 10

a = mark
b = john
c = other friend

you already know how much mark and john paid. figure out how much the last person made by solving for c.

then decide who paid the most
