Ross and 5 of his friends are going kayaking. They rented 6 kayaks for $420. Then they bought food for all 6 people, which cost $144. If all 6 people shared the cost of the trip equally, how much did each person pay?

well add together the two expenses (420 + 144) then divide the sum by 6, you'll have the answer :)

@dstewart4 Ross and his friends (six people in total) pay 420 and 144 bucks. That's 564 bucks in whole. To know how much each person will have to pay, we need to split the total cost, 564 dollars, into 6 equal groups. Each person needs to pay 94 dollars..
