A group of eight friends is ordering pizza for dinner. There are eight slices of pizza in a pizza pie and each friend has one slice. One pizza pie costs $\$12$ and the friends decide to split the bill. How many dollars should each person pay

Respuesta :

Answer:

Each person would pay $1.5 Ā 

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Total number of pizza slice = 8

Total number of friends = 8

Each friend had a slice of pizza.

Total bill = $12

Dollars each person should pay =

[tex]=\dfrac{\text{Total bill}}{\text{Total number of persons}}\\\\=\dfrac{12}{8}\\\\=\$1.5[/tex]

Thus, each person would pay $1.5

Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the friends split the pizza evenly, the cost should be evenly distributed among them and each person should pay for $\frac{1}{8}$ of the bill. We get $\$12\cdot\frac{1}{8}=\frac{\$12}{8}=\$1.50.$Therefore, each person should pay $\boxed{1.50}$ dollars for the pizza.
