A party of 4 order 3 dozen oysters on the half shell for $15.00 a dozen, 2 pounds of steamed shrimp for $14.00 a pound and 2 pounds of fried clams for $13.50 a pound. If they split the bill equally, how much will they each owe? Let's answer step by step:
User
They ordered 3 dozen oysters at $15.00 a dozen so that's 3 * 15 = $45.00. They ordered 2 pounds of shrimp for $14.00 a pound so that's 2 * 14 = $28.00. They ordered 2 pounds of fried clams for $13.50 a pound so that's 2 * 13.50 = $27.00. All total their bill comes to 45 + 28 + 27 = $100.00. Their bill was $100.00 and they are splitting it equally amongst 4 people so they each owe 100 / 4 = $25.00. The answer: 25.
