Five dozens of people are attending your family reunion. Your family was assigned to bring the cans of soda. Each box of soda contains 10 cans and costs $2 per box. It was assumed that each person can consume 2 cans of soda. If you are six in the family and agreed to pay equally for the cost, how much will each of your family members pay?

Five dozens of people is equal to 5 x 12 = 60. 60 x 2 = 120 cans of soda are needed. So, this means 120 / 10 = 12 boxes of soda must be purchased. Thus, it will amount to $2 x 12 = $24. Therefore, each family member will pay $24 / 6 = $4.
Thus, the answer is 4.
