So solve for how many each person owes, we need to set up an equation.
x stands for how much each person owes
46.64 is the total, so it goes after the equal sign.
4 people go out to lunch.
Equation : 4c = 46.64
Now, we need to solve for x.
Do the inverse operation.
4c/4 = 46.64/4 Divide each side by 4
c= 46.64/4
c= 11.66
Each person must pay 11.66 dollars
Final answer: Each person owes $11.66
